Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ especially our Sick and Suffering Members:
Yes, brother, may I profit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ. - Philemon 1:20
We as Saint Joan of Arc community have cause for great rejoicing. Just this week it was announced that we have been granted a new parochial vicar, Father Christopher Considine. As you had heard two weeks ago, Father Matt will be heading to Saint Augustine's in Brighton to serve there in July. Our newest priest to our parish will also be one of the newest priests in the diocese. Father Christopher Considine was ordained on, Saturday, May 16, 2020.
I am so very grateful to the Archbishop for entrusting the care of one of the newly ordained to our parish. This is a great gift as a man always remembers his first parish, the place where he did his first Sunday Masses, his first confessions, his first anointings, his first funeral. Our parish will be blessed to receive from Father Considine so many gifts.
May God continue his ministry of healing in all of us.
Fr. Nathan
