This wonderful week began with the celebration of the “burning of our mortgage” for the construction of the new worship space at Our Lady of the Lake Parish. It was the culmination of years of serious planning, hard work and great sacrifice on the part of so many parishioners. It was a special joy to have Fr. Joe return and celebrate this day with the parish family he guided for so many wonderful years. Following the prayer service, the worship committee put together a wonderful party where all celebrated and enjoyed wonderful food and fellowship.
Six days later, the ladies of Our Lady, the WOOL, their spouses and the Knights of Columbus prepared and hosted a wonderfully successful event for the wider community of the Edwardsburg area. Vendors with a wide variety of artistic skills came from many places to sell their goods. Nearly a thousand people came for the event. They were warmly welcomed by the WOOL and other volunteers. It was a great event where our parish opened its doors to the local community. I am very proud of their efforts.
And on Sunday at St. Ann Parish, the community remembered Mary Bradley who was a long term parishioner who recently passed away. A delicious breakfast was had after the Mass in Mary’s honor and donations were made to her favorite charity. It was a joyful occasion and Saint Ann and its women planned and gave all a wonderful breakfast and a great opportunity for fellowship.
With such great people in the parishes where I serve, I am blessed to be with them. Bless all of you for a wonderful week.

Padre
