Angel Dusters- Many thanks to our Angel Dusters who include
Michele Buckingham, Judy New, Barb Kohler, Joanne Britton
(Choir Loft), Jerold Ashcroft, Mary Hall, Kathleen Tyler, Cindy
Kilburn, Tammy Miller, and Ron & Carol Workman for doing a
wonderful job cleaning St. James for the month of May.
From the Pastor:
Today we celebrate one of the
To The Parishioners of St. James & St. Marv,s
most
fundamental beliefs of Christianity: the Trinity
three distinct, coequal persons in one
God. For the Church, the Trinity is considered a mystery. There
are aspects of it we will never fully grasp while we are this side
of heaven. But it is something that we hold as revealed truth.
It is hard to believe that the St. James Fair is only a little more
than a month away. We have had several planning meetings to
prepare for this wonderful parish event - June 23, 24, and
25. More workers are needed to cover all the bases. There is a
sign-up sheet in the Gathering Area of the church so you can sign
up to work. If you can give us just a few hours, it would be
greatly appreciated by all. And the BIG news around the parish
is that the pastor will be going in the dunking booth this year and
he is very excited about it.
You can now register for the all-important Vocations Summit INSPIRE: CALLED TO LOVE - to be held in Lake Placid on
September 25. The registration forms can be found in the
gathering space of each church. We have procured a 55
passenger coach to take us to the Summit. Please register NOW
if you want a space on the bus. We are sharing the bus with St.
Peter's, Lowville and the available seats will go fast! You do not
want to miss this important Diocesan event.
I
can't believe I am mentioning this but someone asked me the
other day if St. James Church and CAA would consider putting
together a float for the HOLIDAY PARADE for next
November! I am like you - it is hard to speak about Holiday
Time when we haven't even had the St. James Fair yet. But this
person was asking a good question and it isn't too early to think
about a float. Last November an inquiry was made about St.
James having a float in the Parade. We need someone from the
parish or a group ofpeople to help organize this float. Please see
me as soon as possible, so we can begin to think about a possible
theme for the float.
Lori Hanno
has resigned as Trustee
of St. James Church
because
of family and work commitments. Lori has done a wonderful job
and will be missed. I know that Father George Maroun and I
have both benefitted from her counsel. I have appointed Cam
Moses as her replacement. Cam has generously agreed to serve
as Trustee and I am grateful for her willingness to serve. A
parish trustee serves as an advisor to the pastor and also serves on
the Parish Finance Council and the Parish Pastoral Council.
Deacon Todd Thibault has been assigned to St. Mary's Church,
Canton as of June l. Don't forget that Deacon Todd will be
ordained a priest on October 8 at St. Mary's Cathedral and will
then celebrate his First Mass the following day
at
St.
James. Please mark your calendar.
Next Sunday is the Feast of Corpus Christi - the Body and Blood
of Jesus. After the l0am Mass, adoration of the Blessed
Sacrament
will take place until 3pm when Benediction will
take
place. Please plan on spending a few minutes with the Lord next
Sunday.
Next Monday (May 30) is Memorial Day and there will be a St.
James Cemetery Mass at 9am. Please bring a folding chair. This
is my first cemetery mass and I am so excited that I haven't been
able to sleep for days.
Thank you all for your wonderful support of me these last
few years and being there for my ordination to the Transitional Diaconate on April 2nd. You have always made me
feel welcome and part of the family and I am so grateful to
you all.
I would also like to thank Fr. Robinson for his support and
assistance in putting the Ordination together. Thank you
also to the Choir for the beautiful music and all the altar
servers who served at Mass so soon after the busy Holy
Week schedule.
Finally, I want to thank all the groups who helped put on
the wonderful reception following the Ordination: The
Good Samaritans, The Ave Maria Circle, Women of Grace,
St. Mary's Altar & Rosary Society and The Knights of Columbus. Barb Kohler for the beautiful cake and John and
the custodial staff, and Joanne Sligar and the decorating
crew, all of which have supported me since I arrived in
Carthage in August of 2013. Your prayers and support
have helped me greatly as I finished my studies for the
priesthood. I have been and will continue to pray for you
all. God Bless, Deacon Todd
