THANK YOU FROM FATHER DENNIS

Thank you to all who participated in my 25th Jubilee of Priesthood. I am grateful and humbled by all those who worked so tirelessly in doing the work. Special thanks to Mary Beth for all of the liturgical preparations, Sr. Immacolata and all her many helpers, for all their work in preparing the picnic. I am grateful for the musical gifts of the Men's Choir. They were terrific as always. Thanks also to all the parishioners of St. John the Baptist, Landeck for all their work in setting up the tables and chairs and food preparation. Thanks also to all the parishioners of St. John the Evangelist, St. John the Baptist, and St. Patrick Spencerville that made the celebration possible. Finally thanks to my sister, Brenda, for her work in coordinating the event.

I am truly grateful to God for having called me to priesthood and the grace to live out the vocation. It is a wonderful gift that I am privileged to share with you. I thank you also for your expressions of gratitude.

Fr. Dennis
