--The ball is in our court! The two meetings that will take place under the facilitators from the Catholic Leadership Institute give us the opportunity to be creative in developing ways to bring renewed vitality to our parish life. The more each parishioner is willing to invest in the parish in those three areas you've heard about before - time, talent and treasure - the more the parish will show its sustainability. --The appointment of a new pastor and his arrival in July can bring a new energy to parish spirit and service, building on the good work and strong community spirit that is already going on. --The potential to find a new tenant for the school building, with the potential not only to cover the expenses of the building but bring in some positive rental income, can begin to relieve the financial challenges we now face. --The good leadership that we have in the people on our "Key Leadership Committee," and on our Parish Advisory Council and Finance Committee will be able to have our new pastor transition well into his new ministry with you and in the process. PLEASE make every effort to be at the meeting with the Sustainability Study facilitators in the gym on Friday, March 24 at 6:30 p.m., following Stations of the Cross in church at 6:00 p.m. You are asked to register in advance for this meeting.
