Dear Folks,

Sharing with you a few pictures from a great night we had with the priests of our Deanery and the Bishop at the FredNats! Colonial Medicine—parishioner-owned and a FredNats sponsor—took wonderful care of us and hosted us in their suite at the ballpark for a game this week. Many folks from St. Mary’s and surrounding parishes stopped by to greet the Bishop, who even got a shout-out on the scoreboard in the 8th inning!

Which reminds me to encourage you to sign up for Parish Night at the Ballpark on August 22nd! It’s a Fireworks Friday, and there are two levels of tickets available:

$19 for a standard ticket in a St.Mary section OR

$38 for a ticket that includes a dinner buffet (hot dogs, burgers, potato salad, drinks )

It’s a great value, as purchased separately one would pay a lot more.

The priests were all smiles this week, especially after tasting the surprisingly good cookies! I hope you can join us! I’ll let the smiles on our faces be the rest of my “message” this week!

pax,

Father John Mosimann
