PARISH LEADERSHIP LETTER

Dear St. Bridians,

    While we are happy for Fr. Jesse, Sophia and John as they prepare for a new adventure, I am sure that most of us are saying, “What about us? What are we going to do?” This is absolutely normal! 

Because the Parish leadership received the news from Fr. Jesse on Monday afternoon and Tuesday with you all, we have not had time to plan, meet, brainstorm or talk to the Diocese.

Here is what we know so far:

We know that we have strong leadership.

We know that we are able to meet our bills.

We know that St. Bridians will always rise to meet challenging times.

We know that Mass will be held, the sick will be visited and we will continue to worship God.

Here is what we don’t know YET.

We don’t know if the Diocese already has a plan for us.

We don’t know if there will be a paring with St. Peter’s or another church.

We don’t know ….much.

BUT we will soon and we will share it as soon as we know.

Meanwhile, let's celebrate this time we have with the Lassiters and worship together in April and May.

Did you miss Fr. Jesse's letter of resignation?
