Dear Parishioners,
Our deepest sympathy to the extended families of Morris Timm and Kathleen Schilling. May their souls, and the souls of all the faithful departed, rest in peace.
Happy Thanksgiving weekend to all. Due to the festivities, I am writing these notes before the feast, but all the same, I am sure that my mother will have prepared plenty. In anticipation of her birthday which was this last week, I visited her in Willmar 'on the way home' from the Mass for Marriage in Olivia last sunday afternoon. She, very worried about not having enough turkey, proceeded to tell me that she had procured a 22 pound bird for my sisters, brother-in-law, 4 nieces and nephews, herself and me. She reminded me that she likes left overs, and she certainly should love this turkey!
This weekend is the last weekend of the Liturgical year. We celebrate the feast of Christ the King, and as we do so, call to mind that He will return and subject all of creation to Himself, and in turn submit all to the Father. He is our King and our Savior. As we prepare for the final days, we are reminded that it is in Him alone that we place our trust. God alone is worthy of our praise. Long live Christ the King!
In Christ,
Fr. Todd
