Thank you, Fr. Ron, and blessings upon your continued ministry to the People of God.

There is sadness in parting.  Fr. Ron is leaving us after only two years to minister to Dominican Sisters in Sinsinawa, Wisconsin.  While with us, he has shared a lot of insight into the Word of God and delivered many memorial homilies.  He has been a good housemate, although his eating habits are different than mine.  I would like to thank him for his valuable contribution to our parish for he has made us a better community and brought many new ideas of how we can see Christ in others, be Christ to others, and make Christ more visible in our towns and families.  This will be a new experience for Fr. Ron, ministering to a group of Sisters rather than a parish.  Hopefully it will be a new opportunity for him to see Christ in new ways that he had not experienced before.  Thank you, Fr. Ron, and blessings upon your continued ministry to the People of God.  Fr. Mike
