from our pastorpax et bonumDear Folks,What a week: snow, trees, cars on I-95, and power outages. If youare reading this, then you got the email or the digital version ofour bulletin. With all the of closures this week, getting a printbulletin in time for the weekend was not possible.When I read of folks stranded on I-95, fortunately it was storiesof people who live near 95 bringing blankets and food to strandedmotorists. That is something I can picture in a serious trafficmess! Many in our parish are still without power 3 days after thestorm ended, but the folks that I ask have all found showers andheat with neighbors and fellow parishioners (ok, and a ResidentInn or two)!10 years ago then Pope Benedict met with Italian ski instructors.He praised the ski instructors saying, "Your engagement as'ski masters' helps to boost certain capacities, for examplesteadfastness in pursing aims, respect for the rules, tenacity inconfronting and surmounting difficulties.” I saved that quoteto use in the bulletin one day, and so today it is. Steadfastness,tenacity, and overcoming difficulties: sounds like a description ofgraces we have all had to rely on this week.New Parishioner WelcomeSunday, January 1610:30am-12pmWelcome to St. Mary's! Fr. Mosimann and a few members ofour Welcoming Committee are looking forward to spendingsome time with you, to get to know you a bit and see how you(and your family) might be interested in sharing your gifts andtalents with your new parish family.Please sign-up for a time slot (in-person OR via ZOOM) foryourself and/or family to spend time with our WelcomeCommittee Team and with your new 29AAF58-newparishionerI pray that the rest of 2022 will be a little more gentle on usthan this first week and that your power be turned back on withthanksgiving for warm showers.pax et bonum,Fr MosimannSAINT MARYof theI M M A C U L A T E C O N C E P T I O N stmaryfred.org3
