On this solemn Sunday on which we commemorate our Lord’s entrance into Jerusalem, and his impending Passion and Death, I’d like to let a holier and more eloquent speaker put us in the proper frame of mind. Who better than Venerable Fulton Sheen?

I’d like to update all of you on our first parish council meeting. We will only meet a couple times a year, so the discussion covers quite a bit - as you’ll see. The idea behind a parish council is to facilitate communication between the pastor and the parishioners; to give counsel and input on the direction of the parish with regard to practical details (since the spiritual direction of every parish is the same - holiness!); to be a forum in which to throw around ideas and give feedback; and to represent the needs of the entire parish community.
