I want to begin this “note” with a word of recognition and gratitude to everyone who participated in the Rock-a-Thon for Haiti.” Throughout the day and evening, wherever the group might be found in the Parish Center, whatever the group might be doing, participants (junior and more senior) quite intentionally and enthusiastically kept those rocking chairs rocking! The donations received to date to address hunger in this disasterravaged nation by feeding a family for a year also are greatly appreciated. Poverty and hunger on this scale are not time-limited. If you haven’t been able to contribute to this parish effort prior to the actual event last Sunday, contributions designated toward this intergenerational effort will be welcome! You will find below the first publication of a notice for a new, part-time position here at St. Peter’s of which I have spoken earlier in winter. It is a position which I truly believe will be sustained by the increased giving we already are beginning to measure. It will help me address both challenges and opportunities that are mine directly as pastor, and which are ours more generally as a parish community. If you are interested in this potential opportunity or know someone in the community who might be, please contact me or pass along this information as you think helpful!
