Happy Gaudete Sunday!  Let's us rejoice!!

I want to thank those who were able to join us this past Thursday.  I especially want to thank John Satti for his Advent Reflection who reminded us we are not only preparing for Christmas but also for Jesus' eventual return!

Attached is the presentation from Thursday's gathering.

This upcoming Sunday is the annual St. James' Christmas Concert.  The concert is at 6PM, and should run less than 1.5 hours.  It is always a great family event.

This year, there will be an After Glow following the concert.  Men for Others has been asked to serve at the After Glow as well as set up the Hall and clean up after the event.  We will be serving wine to adults, hot chocolate to the kids and cookies to all.

We are looking for six to twelve of us to fill the spots.  Below is a sign up if you can give of your time this Sunday.

On Saturday, January 22, 2022, following the 4PM Mass, we will be celebrating Fr. Ed's 70th Birthday.  Men for Others has been asked to replicate what we did for Trunk or Treat back in October, and serve pizza for the event.  The good news is we will not be in the parking lot, but in the Church's Hall.  

Similar to next Sunday, we'll be looking for six to twelve of us to serve pizza, set up and clean up.  The event should be done by 7PM on the 22nd.

Thank you for considering to serve our wonderful Parish Family this upcoming Sunday and on January 22nd.

And if I don't see you in Church, I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas.

God Bless,

John Fitzpatrick
