St Edward parishioners:
St Michaels church has asked me to share that Fr. Jim is nearing the end of his journey with ALS. Fr. Jim is resting at the hospital; his doctors have not indicated how long he has left, but he is in decline. Fr. Gary asks that we not visit the hospital but come together as a community to hold Fr. Jim in prayer. As we face this difficult moment together, we ask everyone to take some time to pray for him and his family. Fr. Jim has been such a blessing to so many of us and our parish; this is our time to cover him with our prayers and love. Let us pray for peace and comfort for Fr. Jim and strength for one another as we prepare to say goodbye to someone who means so much to us all. We will continue to keep you updated as we all journey with Fr. Jim in prayer through his final time with us.
We will have the church open today Monday, December 16, 2024 so anyone may come and pray throughout the afternoon and evening.

Daily Meditation
“If you were to die today, what would others say about you? What was in you that was beautiful, that was Christ-like, that helped others to pray better? Face yourself, with Jesus at your side, and do not be satisfied with just any answer.” – St. Teresa of Calcutta
