Dear Parishioners,
Walking with Moms in Need held its annual luncheon fundraiser last Saturday at the St. Peter Gym. The event not only raised money, it also raised our awareness of women who have courageously chosen to keep their children and how WWMIN has helped them through their struggles. Thank you to Gretchen Bulan (St. Julie’s), who emceed the event and Ann Marie Flanagan (St. Julie’s), who beautifully outlined the purpose and practice of WWMIN. Special thanks to Cyndy Traut (St. Peter’s) who oversaw the luncheon and Polly Wittrup (St. Peter’s) and team for preparing the food.
Both St. Peter and St. Julie Parishes celebrated the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick on Saturday evening and at one Mass on Sunday. This is the Sacrament that brings to those who are seriously or chronically ill, or who are elderly, the healing mercy of Jesus Christ. In addition to those we anointed at Mass, both Fr. Isidore and I were called out to anoint the sick in hospitals and homes last weekend. I am grateful for Christ, who gave the Church this sacrament to meet us with healing and forgiveness at these critical moments in our lives.
Last Sunday’s Cycling Saints was somewhat of a washout. Though no one told me that they were riding last Sunday, I still ventured out to the North Coast Inland Trail off Butternut Ridge Rd. in Oberlin. The ride was a little wet, though refreshing.
On Monday of last week, I ran into Fr. Mitchel Carson, now the newly ordained priest at St. Joseph Parish in Avon Lake. We were both hearing confessions for school children at Holy Trinity Parish. He invited me to drop by Holy Spirit Parish in Avon Lake (where he and Fr. Ron Wearsch live) for Milkshake Monday. So, after the meal at Discovering Christ and a visit to some of the classes at PSR at St. Peter’s, I dropped in for a milkshake at Holy Spirit parish. What’s not to like!
I want to encourage you to check out the newly designed websites of St. Julie Parish, St. Peter Parish and St. Peter School. Each of these entities now have a similar feel and look. However, the content of each website has been updated. It is also easier to navigate between each of the websites.
I have been around long enough to know that no website is ever quite complete. They take constant maintenance and work. I pray that each of these websites be regularly updated so that we can keep providing the information people need to connect with the Church.
Also, last week, St. Julie and St. Peter Parish participated in the Hallow Prayer Challenge. I hope that these special presentations were a source of inspiration for the people of God in North Ridgeville. I would appreciate any feedback you have about the app.
In today’s gospel Jesus gets political. The Pharisees and Herodians teamed up to trap Jesus. With great wisdom, Jesus turned the tables. His response was, “…repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God.” (Matthew 22:21) So it is “Yes” to taxes with money and “Yes” to God with our lives.
In Christ,
Fr. Bob Franco
