Pastor Column – 22 November 2020

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving Day – even as we carefully observe safety protocols due to Covid – I came across this beautiful prayer from Teenager Kelli Mahoney:

Thank you, Lord, for the blessings you have bestowed on my life. You have provided me with more than I could ever have imagined. You have surrounded me with people who always look out for me. You have given me family and friends who bless me every day with kind words and actions. They lift me up in ways that keep my eyes focused on you and make my spirit soar.

Also, thank you, Lord, for keeping me safe. You protect me from those things that seem to haunt others. You help me make better choices, and you have provided me with advisors that help me with the difficult decisions. You speak to me in so many ways so that I always know you are here.

And Lord, I am so grateful for keeping those around me safe and loved. I hope that you provide me with the ability and sense to show them every day how much they matter. I hope that you give me the ability to give to them the same kindness they have provided to me. I am just so grateful for all of your blessings in my life, Lord. I pray that you remind me of just how lucky I am, and that you never allow me to forget to show my gratitude in prayer and returned kind acts. Thank you, Lord. In your name, Amen.

Let this be our prayer and let us take a moment to raise our glass of one’s favorite beverage and offer thoughtful cheer to all who warm our hearts.                                                                                  Gratefully yours in Christ,

Fr. Gurnick

IMPORTANT! PLEASE SHARE YOUR PLANS FOR CHRISTMAS

by Leave a Comment

Bishop Edward Malesic has informed us that the dispensation from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days remains in effect for the foreseeable future.  With this in mind, we invite you to share your intention regarding Christmas Eve or Christmas Day liturgies.  We are also planning to suspend the Mass During the Night (10:00pm) this year.

While you are not committing to anything at this time, we would find it helpful if you shared your present inclination.  If you haven’t already completed a brief survey at church, we would very much like to know your plans in order to properly prepare.

Please let us know if you plan to join us in person for a Christmas Eve Mass, for a Christmas Morning Mass, or if you plan to join us via livestream.   If you and your family plan to join us in person, indicate the number of seats you might require.    Just send a quick email to rectory@stmalachi.org with “Christmas Mass” in the subject line.  You may also call the rectory at 216-861-5343.

The Mass Schedule will be based on parishioners’ feedback.  Thanks for your input by November 18th.
