If you have not yet said goodbye to Andrew, please do so after the 10:00 am, 12:00 noon, or 5:00 pm Masses this weekend. He will be missed! In my former post as the Associate Music Director at the Shrine before coming to St. Jane s, I know of the unique demands of working at such a highly visible institution in the Catholic Church. I have no doubt that Andrew s musical skill, talent, and personality will comfort and inspire countless pilgrims at the Shrine and beyond. Many of you have been asking me how you can be of help during this time of transition. We currently are looking to hire someone to fill our part-time Assistant Music Director position, but this process may take some time, and in the meantime, I will be handling the duties of both the director and assistant director positions. What would be of immense support and assistance to me would be your willingness to join a choir or to serve in a liturgical ministry. Some of our ministries are spread too thin, and thus require additional amounts of time on my part to assign and reconfigure schedules and music lists. Now is the time if you have ever considered joining a Music Ministry (Parish Choir, Family Choir, Handbell Ensemble, Children s
