Fr Jim Lang to celebrate Masses Feb 11/12
Fr. Jim Lang will be our celebrant and homilist for all the Masses on the weekend of February 11-12. He will speak on what a “linkage” is and what it is not, and all the challenges that come when parishes link or merge. This talk is timely especially in light of the shortage of our diocesan active priests. We thank Fr. Jim for taking the time to share with us the wisdom he has acquired over the many years ministering to parishes and parishioners during these years of
“reconfiguration.”
Mass Time Change at St Cecilia Cancelled
