With the road to renewal in full swing, we are beginning to see some significant changes among our parishes. The first being the introduction of a new weekend Mass schedule. As you know, among the six parishes in our family, we have been tasked to reduce our weekend Mass times down from 23 to 12. The Pastoral Advisory Boards of both OLP and STC have spent the past few months discerning a new schedule for phase one of this process for our two parishes. As I have said in the past, these changes are unavoidable and, inevitably, we will all feel a temporary sense of sadness, anger, or frustration as the celebrations we have become accustomed to will change. I beg you to offer that all up to the Lord, to ask Him to bring peace to your heart and the hearts of all those in the diocese of Buffalo who are journeying together into this Renewal. As with the daily Mass schedule a few months ago, any Mass intentions that are affected will receive a phone call and can be rescheduled as a second intention for a Mass on the same day. Thanks for your patience during this time of change for all of us.
AMDG, Fr Dave |

PRAYER FOR RENEWAL
In every age, O God, you have called us to be your people,
to be your Church.
In this time, we begin anew to discern the pathways
that will lead us, your people, closer to you.
Continually Bless our journey as we proclaim
your Good News, celebrate your saving
presence among us, serve others with charity
and justice, and steward the world you have entrusted
to our care.
Send your Spirit to lead and guide our Emmaus journey as we commit ourselves to the renewal of our Church.
This we ask thought Christ our Lord. Amen.

I would like to invite you to pray together intentionally for the collaborative efforts of Our Lady of Pompeii and St Teresa of Calcutta Parishes. Please set an alarm for 4:13 and pray the Come, Holy Spirit prayer. Why 4:13? Because April 13 (4/13) is the date Bishop Mike appointed me pastor of these two parishes and what set us on this path of collaboration. Thank you for your faith. I can't wait to see what God has in store for all of us. Come, Holy Spirit! AMDG, Fr Dave
