Dear St Francis Parishioners and guests,

We unfortunately have to cancel our parish mission that was scheduled for February 16, 17, 18. Dave Vanvickle's wife is currently battling stage 4 cancer and needs an immediate medical treatment done during the time he would be here with us. While we are sad he cannot make it, we completely understand that his wife and children would take priority!

The Evangelization Committee has decided that because we have childcare set up, and you all have reserved time during your busy schedules to get together, we wanted to keep one of the nights - Tuesday, Feb 18th - as a parish get together! This will be an all parish pitch-in dinner (dessert will be provided, so bring a dish to share!) after the 5:30pm Mass with childcare available, and then Father Doerr will set up adoration from 7:30-8pm. Because of the nature of the cancellation we wanted to make the intention for Adoration to be prayer for all those dealing with an illness and especially for Dave's wife. 

We intend to reschedule our parish mission for a later date; however, right now we want to come together as a parish to break bread in the Parish Hall and pray together in the Worship Space!

We hope you will join us on Tuesday, Feb 18th after the 5:30pm Mass. If you need childcare, please let Christine Wolfert know at cwolfert@parish.dol-in.org!
