From June 12 to 15, I was in Halifax, Nova
Scotia, with Steve Geitgey, Tess Keddie,
Marianne Kisak, and Carol & Pat Riley. We
attended the “Divine Renovation” conference—
basically, the story of how St. Benedict Parish,
Halifax, converted from managing a steady
decline to becoming a lively, healthy community.
Three bishops, about 130 priests, and about 500
of the lay faithful attended from around the
world. I believe many of us were favorably
impressed.
The conference emerged from the book, Divine Renovation: Bringing Your
Parish from Maintenance to Mission, which I already distributed last year to
many parishioners, and again this year to the new Pastoral Council. It’s
available from Amazon.com (which says Divine Renovation is one of the top
ten sellers globally in church-related books). I have a limited number
available for $15 each, if you can’t find it elsewhere. I
encourage you to read the book and think about how it might
apply to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish.
Large portions of the conference are available online at:
http://www.divinerenovation.net/
For now, the key elements are also available at:
http://livestream.com/accounts/6379109
 Join me at the annual parish picnic this Sunday afternoon, June 26. Bring your family and friends!
 Please remember to say a prayer for the Christian Mothers & Guild, who this month donated $15,000—
the proceeds of their year’s undertakings—to SEAS Parish. I appreciate all they do to build community
in the parish (and raise a few dollars along the way).
 Thanks also to Mark DeAndrea for his service on the Finance Council, from which he resigned this
month in favor of his work with the St. Vincent de Paul Society.
—Fr. Dave

HEARTS SPEAK TO HEARTS
SEAS EVANGELIZES
'F.A.C.T.' FINDING
"The greatest joy in the world is to know, to experience, being used by the Lord to make a difference in
someone's life or in the world. Everyone wins. The one who serves wins, the one served wins, and there is
even a win for the Kingdom of God." —Fr. James Mallon, Divine Renovation
Our parish is currently seeking people who are not overly involved in parish ministries, who have the following
(F.A.C.T.) qualities:
*Faithful: people who have Christ in the center of their lives;
*Available: people who realize that they have a little more time, energy, and open-heartedness to give to
Christ through the Church;
*Contagious: infectious with their love of Christ;
*Teachable: docile, eager to learn.
If you are someone who has these qualities, please call 412-276-1011 ext. 221 to set up an interview
appointment. We want to get to know you! If you know someone who has these qualities, encourage them
to make the phone call!

SEAS WINE TASTING
Thank you to all who sponsored, donated, and/or attended the third annual wine tasting on June 4 th. The
evening was enjoyable, delicious, educational, and a
success, raising $3,924 for the cemeteries. I would like to
thank the members of the Cemetery Board and the
Finance Council for their support. No event can be
successful without the help of volunteers and we had a
great crew for the wine tasting. Thanks to all of them for
their fantastic efforts before, during, and after the wine
tasting. Without the support of these volunteers the
event would not be possible. Hope to see a full hall next
year.
—Jeffrey Palastro (Wine tasting committee chairman)
Cheers to you!
