"Growth and decline situations are not an urban, ethnic or administrative problem alone, but they involve the whole Diocese. Ours is a family challenge that demands the prayer, cooperation, and creativity of the entire family. I invite all parishes in our Diocese to respond to this call of renewing our mission. The solution I envision will depend upon every parish reconsidering its responsibilities for "parish life" in an area wider than its boundaries. I realize that some people may feel that their parish has everything it needs, so why bother with this process. I want to emphasize that we are called to give witness to a "Catholic vision" of parish life and unity, and not simply a "congregational perspective." Each parish has something to give, and each has something to receive. " Bishop Anthony M. Pilla. You can learn more about Bishop Pilla' Vibrant Parish Life pastoral letter & initiative at the Vibrant Parish Life web site. 

Thank you for the many blankets and towels collected last week on Blanket Sunday. They will be a great blessing to our many homeless and needy neighbors as the cold weather begins. Blankets & towels are always welcome!
