The Deacon Is \u201cSpeakin\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Fr. Terry out of the office, I thought I\u2019d get my \u201c2 cents\u201d worth in.  On July 29th<\/sup> I had just arrived in Denver, CO for a family reunion. The following day I learned that Fr. Terry had been admitted to the hospital.  As you know Father is fighting a blood infection and pneumonia.  On August 11th<\/sup> Fr. Terry was transferred to a \u201crehab\u201d center for continued medical care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cfront office\u201d is in regular contact with Fr. Terry, who continues to direct parish affairs.  Feeling much better now, he is anxious to get back to St. Kateri.  He has retained his jovial personality and good humor.  I have been able to administer Holy Communion to him as has Bp. Battersby. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fr. Terry mentioned to me that the substitute priests are very impressed with the parishioners and the parish facility, while stating (jokingly?): \u201cWe may be facing a coup d\u2019 e-tat upon my return\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On another note, I would like to express my gratitude to you for your support of our diaper and wipe drive on behalf of The Lennon Center<\/strong>, which began in mid-May through June.\u00a0 Over that time, I made five deliveries; my car \u201cfilled to the brim\u201d, which also contained some cash donations.\u00a0 They were most appreciative.\u00a0 I hope, with Fr. Kerner\u2019s approval, we will do this again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, we\u2019d like to welcome Amy Catallo, our 9am Sunday sacristan, as the new scheduler for our weekend Mass lectors.\u00a0 Father and I are most grateful to Gary Lewis\u2019 fulfillment of this role (to include the EMEs and Altar Servers) for the previous four years.\u00a0 With Amy preparing a new schedule for October \u2013 January 2, if you have an interest in being a lector, please advise Dcn. Tom or the office ASAP.\u00a0 Amy will pair you up with a \u201cseasoned\u201d lector for the first few Masses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
