Dear Disciples of Christ at Holy Spirit, St. Helen’s, and St. Mary’s,

This past week, I had the pleasure of spending some time with a few of our parishioners and getting to know them a little better. It was a beautiful day to spend out in the country, getting a chance to muck some horses, see some bison, and share a meal together.
As enjoyable as all of that was, what I loved most was simply sitting around the table and hearing you share your stories. I loved hearing about your families and how much the community has meant to you over the years.

We are surrounded by so much history here. As I continue to learn about the people who make up our parish family, I’m reminded that Jesus is still at work in the midst of all of this. He continues to break into our lives and show us what His Father has planned for us and for His Church.

What a blessing it was to share lunch and get to know some of you better!
A special thanks to JR, who hosted us. Thank you for being so gracious and for providing us with the opportunity to spend time together.

As I’ve mentioned before, I want to continue getting to know you, and one of my favorite ways to do that is over a meal. If you would like to host me for dinner along with a couple of other families, please send me an email at frstevencaraher@gmail.com. Bonus points if you invite a family you don’t know very well!

I’m looking forward to many more meals and many more opportunities to hear your stories.

Peace, Father Steven Caraher
