In case you missed the major news story in our parishes, allow me to quickly recap what I have announced in this column recently (and verbally at the Masses I have celebrated). Two weeks ago, we formally announced that Fr. Lambert would be receiving a new assignment this spring, after completing five years with St. Martha and St. Mary Parishes (longer than the average assignment for recently ordained priests). Last week, this column....Read More

Let’s start with the obvious: no one can replace Fr. Lambert! In case you missed this column last weekend, Fr.

Likewise, we have been uncertain whether we would be receiving another priest as associate pastor for....Read More -

Having served St. Martha Parish and St. Mary Parish for five years, sadly Fr. Lambert’s time with us will soon be coming to an end. Assignments for recently ordained priests are typically three to five years, so this is not a complete surprise, but anytime a parish priest is transferred it is a major change both for him and for the community he serves. Like most of the priests who are transferring this spring, he is....Read More -

Happy Easter! Yes, Easter overflows into an eight-day feast (known in the Church as an octave), and the Easter season is fifty days long (longer than Lent!) Eight may seem a peculiar number of days… why not a three-day feast (a “trinity” of days), or a weeklong feast (seven being the biblical number of fullness)? Instead, Christians celebrate the number eight as the day....Read More
