Fr David and Bishop held a 3-hour public meeting at St Francis Solanus Mission on Tuesday evening Dec 2nd. We want to thank everyone who attended, and for the pointed questions and strong comments. We listened to the many concerns and requests from parishioners and LCO tribal members. There are many issues to consider and act on.
In order to move forward together, we will need many volunteers for councils and committees for St Francis and St Ignatius.
We promise to continue to communicate and to respect the many years of service by Sisters Felissa and Maryrose. We will obtain more information from the Sisters' religious order – the School Sisters of St Francis. We thank the tribal community for their generations of service to the parish and school, and we will protect and preserve the parish cemetery. We want to work together to plan for the future of the parish and the school.
Advent season blessings to all. St Kateri, St Francis Solanus, and St Ignatius – pray for us.
