Points of Interest
Condolences. On Wednesday, 21 March 2012, we celebrated the Divine Liturgy
for the Faithful Departed for Patricia Mitchell. May the Lord give joy and peace to
her and may He comfort her family at this difficult time.
Bishop’s Appeal. Each year the Bishop appeals to us for help in his mission. A
primary responsibility of the Bishop is the care of the priests. The bishop must
educate our future priests, provide support and encourage for the priests in the
parishes and provide a decent and dignified retirement for those who have served.
