Spotlight:
Welcome Fr. Burt Sare!
St. Francis of Assisi parish welcomes Fr. Burt Sare who will be our pastoral administrator while Fr. Jerry recuperates from surgery.
FATHER BURT is currently on sabbatical from the Diocese of Sorsogon in the Phillipines. As you probably heard at Mass, he has been a parochial vicar, a teacher in a seminary and then the rector of that seminary. He comes from a large family including a sister who is a nun. He is seeking permission from his bishop to remain in the United States for an extended period of time. He was due to arrive at St. Francis on Thursday, August 14 and will officially take charge in the following days.
You will enjoy meeting him and he is looking forward to meeting all of us. A time to do that will be announced as soon as definite plans are made.
