“What shall I return to the Lord for all his goodness to me?”

Psalm 116:12

This is the verse from Scripture I chose for my ordination card. This sums up exactly how I feel as I begin ministry at Saint Raymond. I thank Bishop Barber for entrusting me with this assignment. I believe all of my previous assignments have prepared me for this new role as parochial administrator. I also rely on the guidance of the Holy Spirit! I count on your prayers during this time of transition. I look forward to meeting all of you and worshipping and praying together as we deepen our relationship with the Lord as one community of faith. You will learn more about me in the weeks and months ahead.

Love,

Father Mark
