REV. MR. KENNETH PARKER, DEACON
October 19th, 2014 ~Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Note from Fr. Bill: I will be working with a Retreat team Directing an 8-day Retreat at the Providence
Spirituality Center in Kingston Ontario from Wednesday, October 22 nd till Wednesday, October 29th. I
will be returning to the parish later on Thursday, October 30th. In the past I have tried to get one of the
priests of the area to take the weekday Masses. However, given that they are already taking on so much,
I am encouraging those who wish to attend a weekday Mass to do so at the Masses scheduled in the
Fredericton area churches. The schedule is included below. Fr. John Tracey, CSC, will be here for
Masses next weekend (October 25 –26). In case you need a priest, you can contact the parish office and
they will know who to contact. Please keep our retreat team and retreatants in your prayer.
Other announcements:
Congratulations to our New Parish Pastoral Council Executive: Nadine Lamoureux (Chair), John Denning
(Vice Chair), Mike Duffy (Secretary) and Jennifer Flynn (Past Chair).
