FOR A SUCCESSFUL GOLF OUTING Dear Parishioners, Our 4th Annual Golf Outing this past Monday was incredible! In addition to the divine weather, everyone enjoyed a fun day on the course and some good food and prizes as well. None of this would have been possible without the dedication of our Golf Committee members and volunteers, and so I d like to express my sincerest gratitude to each of them. A lot of time and hard work goes into the planning and execution of our annual golf outing. As I watched the men and women of our parish over the last several months enthusiastically use their gifts to help out at every phase of the process, and met so many parishioners who came out in support of St. Mary s, I was once again reminded how blessed I am to be the Pastor of such a phenomenal parish community.
