NCCYM CONFERENCE, CLEVELAND, OH- Thank you all for your prayers these past few days as I attended the NCCYM Conference…. It was very enlightening for me and a real grace to be able to attend such a convention, to be gathered with many (2,000) Youth Ministers from all over the country was an awesome gift from God. I gathered a lot of material and information from the different workshops that I attended and the conversations that I had with many people who are in similar ministry as me. There will be more feedback on this conference in the weeks to come. After Christmas I will be asking that those who are interested in helping to advise me in our parish ministry to the youth to come to a social were we can all talk to together about the direction that we will go in as we prepare to walk with our young people on the journey of faith, but as for right now continue to be the great witness of Jesus Christ in all that you say and do!
DATE CHANGE- Note that the St. Joseph Collegiate Institute Swing Choir and Varsity Singers will be here for “The Christmas Story through Song” on WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 17th at 7PM in the CHURCH.
ADVENT VESPER SERVICE- CALLING ALL CHRISTAINS, YOUNG AND OLD! – Faithful of all Christian backgrounds are invited to come to St. Paul’s Church on Friday, December 19th and 7PM to celebrate Advent Vespers, featuring music by Harmonia with Robert Pacillo. We hope to have representation of all Christian faiths among us as we pray together in our common faith in Jesus Christ, the INCARNATE GOD, during this HOLY SEASON OF ADVENT.
May God continue to Bless You and Saint Paul Pray for Us!
