St. Aidan ! St. Patrick parish will be hosting a summer Vacation Bible Camp during the week of! August 6�10! from! 9am�

11:30am.!The theme for the week is "Shipwrecked: Rescued by Jesus." We are excited to bring this program to the children of the parish but in order for it to be a success,!we need help. We need teen and adult volunteers to help with leading either the crafts, cinema, snack prep, or games. Also, we need help to decorate/set�up a week before camp begins and to help break down/clean�up after the camp ends. We need camp counsellors! to facilitate children and transition them from station to station. We also need help with various materials for the week. In the church hall, a bulletin entitled "Be a Life�Saver" will have items which we are asking parishioners! to donate. By donating these items, it will help to keep the!registration fee low for families. For further information or questions please contact Darlyn at! faithformation@aidan�patrick.org!or 333�5897 ext. 14. Thank you!!

!

This past week, I said Mass for Msgr. Patrick Canning who was

the pastor of St. Paul Church when I was born, and was the first

priest I served as an altar server. Msgr. Canning died in 1964 and

when I can, I offer Mass on his anniversary. This week however I

am thinking of how different my life as a pastor is from his.!

!

Back in the 1960’s there were four priests at St. Paul, along with

priests who were in residence. There were six Immaculate Heart

of Mary Religious at the Convent and the school had nine grades

with over 500 students. My first pastor had the priests and reli-

gious to assist in the running and operation of the parish. That is

perhaps the first and greatest difference between now and then.!

!

That is why I am very heartened by the fact that people are ask-

ing questions about our Open Parish Planning Meeting to be held

in the hall on Tuesday, June 19. I have received many and varied

questions about this meeting that illustrate not only the interest

that people have but also the awareness of how a parish today is

so much more than just a place to go to Mass.!

!

Right now for our parish, I have designated seven committees to

address the major aspects of our parish. These may not be the

only committees that we need; there may be other needs that will

require smaller sub�committees. Also these seven committees

will be changing in their work and their focus as we move for-

ward. That is part of what we are discussing as a parish plan.!

!

Let me first say that I understand that there is a difference be-

tween a Council and a Committee. The primary work of our Fi-

nance Council and Faith Formation Council is to advise me, as

the pastor in the decisions I make. But these two councils also

have a secondary purpose of taking on certain projects. For ex-

ample, this past month the Finance Council worked on develop-

ing a budget for next year and the Faith Formation Council has

been at work on Adult Education projects. On the other hand,

Committees, like the seven I am proposing, are primarily “work

groups” for ongoing parish activities and specific projects. Yet

these committees also have a voice in making recommendations

back to the Councils and through the councils to the Pastor.!

!

Furthermore, we have to remember that while there are various

business models that we could try to follow, the reality is that

while a parish “does” business in serving its members and the

community around us, it is more like an extended family. As a

community that is centered on the Eucharist, our model is the

Body of Christ. Just as the organs of our bodies each have a spe-

cific function, but rely upon the other organs, so too in a parish

no council, committee or project can work in isolation. !

!

Right now, there are various projects on my desk that I cannot

accomplish by myself. I need the input and ideas of the parish so

that these projects can be completed in a timely fashion and in a

way that represents the needs of the whole parish. Next week I

will begin to name some of these projects that I will be asking the

committees to undertake. For right now, our work is continued

prayer to the Holy Spirit that we may recognize and discern how

we are being led as the parish of St. Aidan!St. Patrick.!
