This past week the leadership team of our family of parishes, which includes: trustees and clergy, met to discuss the best ways to hear everyone's thoughts on the diocesan suggestions moving forward for our family. In order that everyone can have their voices heard, we have decided that on Tuesday, July 2nd from 5:30pm-6:30pm we will be taking your input.

In order to make this process efficient, we are asking that you come with your ideas in writing so that it cannot be misinterpreted. We know that there is a lot of emotion with the proposed plan; therefore, we ask that all proposals be supportive for betterment of the family moving forward.

The parish trustees will be taking proposals with their parishioners at the following locations.

St. Joseph - Due to the bingo crowd we will meet at the church basement of St. Anthony

St. Anthony - Meet in Church

Holy Trinity - In the pavilion weather permitting, if not meet in the central office

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton - Meet in Church

Blessed Mary Angela - Meet in the Lyceum

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel - Meet in St. Rose hall

We know that we need the Holy Spirit to guide our recommendation, so during this process, we will be having Eucharistic Adoration and Benediction with worship music from 5:30pm - 7:30pm at Holy Trinity. This will be a time of prayer and quiet reflection. All are welcome.

Recent trip to the Ark encounter.  Other stops included the Creation Museum, dinner cruise on the Ohio River (the Kentucky/Ohio state line) and Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of the Assumption.  The Family of Parishes of the Lord's Vineyard and fifteen travelers from D & F travel became a bigger family and all a wonderful time on this trip.  Join us for the next trip!!!
