The Christmas Season ends this weekend with this celebration of the Epiphany. We can now put away all Christmas decorations. We will begin the 1st week of Ordinary Time, Year “A” on Monday, January 9th.  Ordinary Time will last from next week until Ash Wednesday on February 22nd.  I thank everyone for their participation in the Christmastide this year. My special thanks to the Art and Environment ministers and the Liturgy Ministry leaders for their effective planning for the Christmas and New Year Liturgies. I also thank those who sent donations for the poinsettias and other gifts to the parish and staff during this time. 

Thank you to everyone who came and joined us for the information night on December 22nd focusing on stained-glass windows. It was exciting for me to share the images and some details about the windows. I also would like to thank those that watched the recording on our YouTube channel and everyone who reached out and expressed interest. We received a great response and I am overwhelmed with so much gratitude for your support and generosity. Eleven windows still remain available for sponsorship along with the pillars. All of the images and information can be viewed by going to our website. https://www.stbenedict.org/stained-glass
