A New Day

Just after that last blog post was published, things began moving for the church.  Wonderful things are happening for the Community Catholic Church, but they do take some time and energy to support.  Sadly, this blog had to be set aside to use the time in other ways for the good of the church.  The first major event is behind us, however, so it is time to get back to this blog.

Yesterday was our Synod meeting in which our clergy gather to review the past year.  Spending time with the other CCC clergy is always a great pleasure, and yesterday's Synod was no exception.  Our Synod, however, was only one of the events of the day.

During our opening Mass, con-celebrated  by Archbishop Pat and Archbishop Deb, I was ordained to the holy priesthood.  Following a brief reception, the community met with Bishop Michael Shaw and received him into the church.  To say the church is delighted to welcome Bishop Michael is an understatement.  He is a true man of God, serving Christ in the poor, the sick, and the homeless.

We look forward in the coming months to more happy changes for our church!  In the meantime, please do keep us in your prayers, as you are in ours each day.
