Thank you

A big thank you to all of the servers and their families who helped out with the Solemn High Mass for the Feast of St. Ann on Tuesday.

Specifically there's a number of folks to recognize for their efforts. First, thank you to the servers who made multiple practices, arrived early, and served with diligence before, during, and even after the Mass:

Brady O. - Thurifer
Peter Rusciolelli - Acolyte 1
Nathaniel Rusciolleli - Acolyte 2
Michael Kitson - Cross Bearer and Torch Bearer
Harry Ohlhaut - Lead Torch Bearer
AJ Ohlhaut - Lead Torch Bearer
Will Borin - Torch Bearer
Sam Dehority - Torch Bearer
David Rabideau - Torch Bearer
Joseph Mack - Torch Bearer

Additional thanks goes out to Thomas Mathis and his family (especially Danielle) for organizing and managing the pre-Mass dinner. The servers, seminarians, and priests were very grateful for the food during that busy time.

Another special thanks goes out to the Borins, Ostendorfs, and Rabideaus for working with such short notice on putting together the canopy for Bishop Jugis. It came out beautifully and I believe it showed Bishop Jugis that we think he's rather special. (A big thank you to the one organizing the canopy project who asked not to be named but worked very hard up until the moments before Mass began - thank you.)

Be on the look-out for publicity surrounding the Mass which will be coming out soon. The Diocese is very blessed to have a great group of families working so hard to glorify the Lord. Thank you again.
