ST. MARY OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION Dear Parishioners: As I was cleaning out my files in preparation for departing St. Mary s, I came upon my letter from Bishop Lennon which asked me to come to Wooster. Here s the opening line: After proper consultation of the Clergy Personnel Board, I hereby transfer you from Parochial Vicar in Westlake and appoint you Parochial Vicar of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Wooster. This four year assignment becomes effective Tuesday, June 9, 2015. I know what you are thinking, That was a really fast four years. You are right; it has only been two years! However, once a Parochial Vicar interviews for a pastorate, which I did upon leaving St. Bernadette (I interviewed for St. Joseph in Amherst), the Bishop can pull you at any time and directly appoint you to a pastorate, maybe even two pastorates! That is what our Apostolic Administrator, Bishop Daniel Thomas, has done. And, as many of you know, I found about of my new assignment as administrator of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception and Our Lady of Hope parishes in Bedford when I was hiking in the desert of the South Dakota Badlands! Many people have asked me why I have to go. It used to be that a priest needed three or four parish assignments under his belt before he could even think about becoming pastor. In the future, due to the ever-growing priest shortage, priests will be lucky to get one four year assignment under their belt before becoming pastor. There is also a scriptural reason for moving priests from one place to another. In his Gospel, Saint Luke wrote: At daybreak, Jesus left and went to a deserted place. The crowds went looking for him, and when they came to him, they tried to prevent him from leaving them. But he said to them, To the other towns also I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God, because for this purpose I have been sent (Luke 4:42-43). Priests in general, and Parochial Vicars in particular, are itinerant preachers. We go where we are sent by the Bishop, and the Bishop is the Vicar of Christ. The stability and continuity of any parish runs through the pastor. So now I will have the opportunity to sprout a few roots in Bedford. It will be a six year assignment renewable for another six. For the last twelve years of ministry, as a seminarian and priest, I have moved a lot, eight times in twelve years! Now it is time to leave the parishioners of St. Mary s in Wooster and to minister to the Catholics of Bedford, only a short one-hour drive north. I thank all of you for graciously accepting me as your vicar these past two years. You have been very welcoming and affirming, and you have helped sustain me in my ministry, during the good times and the tough times. I ll try not to be a stranger to Wooster in the months to come. Know that you are always welcome to visit me at either of my parishes in Bedford. My new mailing address is: St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception 300 Union St., Bedford, Ohio, 44146 You remain in my prayers. Yours in Christ, Father Joe 2 WOOSTER, OH Mass Schedule and Intentions *see facing page for feasts and memorials observed Sunday, June 11 8:00am Doris A.

As this generation s good stewards, we are obligated to pass on the gift of faith to our children. Children primarily learn through the examples of their parents. Today, many parents are volunteering their time and talents to their churches and community groups and bringing their children along with them. More and more churches are encouraging children to return a portion of their treasure their allowance or other earnings with special children s offering envelopes. As we know from our own experience, it takes a lifetime to develop the habits of good stewardship. God has blessed us in so many marvelous ways. Stewardship is a way of life built around gratitude to God, lived out by returning a portion of the time, talent, and treasure allotted to us. There is no more precious inheritance we can pass on to our children than this lifestyle of gratitude. If you will give these instructions..., you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the sound teaching you have followed. (1 Timothy 4:6) GRATEFUL GIVING PROGRAM UPDATE Our Grateful Giving Program is being very well received by the people of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception. To date, 287 households have increased their weekly contribution in response to our Grateful Giving Program, representing a combined weekly increase of $3,962.60 Please use the special Grateful Giving envelope to indicate your new level of giving, and then return to your regular envelope packet for succeeding weeks. If you are interested in receiving information on our Electronic Giving Program, please contact the parish office. 6
