11th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Father’s Day)

Dear Parishioners,

THANK YOU! Words can not express how I felt at my Retirement Mass and Celebration afterwards. Many people commented that they could feel the love the parishioners have for me and the love that I have for you. It was truly a GREAT celebration! There were many people and organizations that were part of the planning process, I thank you for a wonderful celebration. To all the singers, Ms. Mimi Blank, the organist, Judge Sterling Snowdy, the director, I THANK YOU for helping us lift our voices to the Lord in prayerful song. I will not say “goodbye” because I am not leaving Reserve. I am sure I will run into you either at the post office or the store. I will also occasionally celebrate Mass here too. Once again, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for allowing me to serve as Pastor of St. Peter Parish for the past eleven years.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY! A very Happy and Blessed Father’s Day to all dads, granddads, godfathers, and father-figures. I will have a special Father’s Day Blessing for all dads after the Rite of Communion. Remember, there will be a Father’s Day Bake Sale at all Masses this weekend. Treat dad to some delicious homemade desserts.

On Sunday, June 23rd there will be a Special Meet & Greet in welcoming our new Pastor of St. Peter Catholic Community, Fr. Ray Hymel. The meet and greet will be from 2:30 P.M.-5:00 P.M. in the Msgr. Eyraud Knights of Columbus Hall. Please stop by between the hours of 2:30-5:00 to welcome Father Ray.

Have a Blessed Week!
