Hopefully not us! The message of Jesus can come to us in many settings and in many ways. Bishop's Committee Parishioner Liaison: Every week there will be an assigned member of the Bishop's Committee to serve as a Parishioner Liaison. We encourage parishioners to seek out this assigned member whenever there is a suggestion, question or concern. The liaisons will bring all comments to the monthly meeting of the Bishop's Committee to be addressed as appropriate. This week’s Parishioner Liaison is Bob Cheatham Fr. Harold Knight’s Birthday: On July 26th, Fr. Harold Knight will turn 105!!! He is not going to be able to make it this year for the celebration, so we are collecting birthday cards to deliver to him and request that any be turned in no later than Saturday, July 22nd. There will be a basket in Lion’s Den to collect the cards.
