As Christmas approaches I am reminded of the years that I grew up with my parents owning a restaurant, hotel and bakery.  The front door did not have a lock on it and some people lived in the hotel as their home.

Who would have guessed that 20 months ago when we first encountered covid that we would not only still be dealing with it, but now a new strain has been detected and we do not know what is going to happen.

So many of the funerals we have the children and grandchildren talk about the wonderful time they had with grandpa or grandma.  

We have a good number of children coming back into the worship space and for Faith Formation.

This past month I have had the opportunity to visit with several of my siblings and a cousin who live in various parts of the US.  

As many of you know they are working on Interstate 94 northwest of the parish. They have been for 2 summers now.

Years ago I remember reading that a mother teaches her children how to.  A father teaches them it is important by doing that.

In many ways a Faith Family is like our biological family.  We tend to turn to sisters and brothers in time of need but we also gather with them for celebrations.

Home remodeling has become a big thing during COVID.  The price of wood has jumped like crazy.

Brothers and sisters,  Soon you will be able to see our financial statement for the past year.  We did extremely well given COVID.  There were a number of extenuating circumstances.

Do you remember your family gatherings for birthdays, Christmas and weddings?  Mine always had lots of folks gathered around the table.

Please join the SJTW Ladies Auxiliary in congratulating Terri Kavanaugh on receiving the State Auxilian of the Year award for 2020. We are very grateful to have Terri as part of our group and wanted to say thank you and keep up the good work.
