January 8, 2023: Epiphany
This Wednesday, January 11, I will no longer be the pastor of St. Mark in
Shoreham. Two and a half years ago I readily accepted the assignment
from Bishop Barres and promised him I would do my best to serve both
parishes. During the fall while I was recuperating from surgery, it be-
came clear to me that something was “not right” — it was taking a toll on
my health and taking a toll on the vitality of both parishes. I feel that St.
John’s and St. Mark’s are best served by a pastor who is on-site all week,
who can focus on the daily details and also have a vision for the future.
To be honest, the administrative responsibilities of two parishes were just
too much for me. The decision to resign was very difficult, and I will
miss the people of St. Mark.
Last June Bishop Barres renewed my assignment as your pastor for an-
other six-year term (June, 2032). Please pray for me that I can serve you
with faithfulness, joy and pastoral creativity.
I look forward to “coming home” this week and being with you for the
years to come. Count on my daily prayers and lots of love as the new
year begins here at my home, St. John the Baptist parish!
St. John the Baptist, pray for us!
Are you thinking about pursuing
an Annulment as something for the New Year?
Please feel free to contact Father Frank with any questions!
Is money a problem?
The parish will be happy to cover the fee for you, if needed!
Pope Benedict XVI

O God, who in your wondrous providence
chose your servant Pope Benedict XVI

grant, we pray,
that, having served

Who lives and reigns forever and ever. Amen.

Thank you for all those who use Faith Direct on-line giving.
Please consider “automated giving” as you reflect on support of our parish family!
The fruitful ministries at our parish are examples of how
many of you have answered, and continue to answer,
that call. To ensure such work can continue requires not
only gifts of time, but also of financial help. I ask you to
prayerfully consider supporting our parish with electronic
donations through Faith Direct. You can find paper enrollment forms in the parish
office, or you can sign up online at www.faithdirect.net by using our church code,
NY67.
