Online / Advanced ticket sales closed. Sorry about that. Now for more apologies... Due to a family medical emergency the Screaming Orphans had to fly back to Ireland, and so, will not be able to perform. Clear the Battlefield has also cancelled. Mick Thomas is also unable to MC. Anyone who purchased online tickets and wants a refund, please send the request through the Event Groove link.

There are things that are never easy to say or do. This weekend I had to inform the parish community of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel that I am being transferred at the end of June.
There is a real sense of grief on my part and on the part of my parishioners, and even though I have had a little more time to digest it, there’s still some anger and frustration that I feel. This was the first parish where I was a pastor, and it holds a special place in my heart because of that.
There’s a reason why priests are called father, and even though it may not resonate with our current culture, it has been something I take very seriously. Like my own father, there are many things that I have had to sacrifice for my family. While some of my friends, who are priests, have enjoyed vacations and programs that have helped them, the needs of my parish had to come first. There have been many people in the parish, and friends from outside, who have been extremely generous in helping me do things to build up the parish community. I couldn’t have done what was done in the parish without them.
While there are still many things that need to be accomplished in the parish, I have faith in my friend Fr. Dave who is taking my place. Truthfully, I know him to be a better man and better priest than I am, and the people of this parish deserve better than what I can offer.
There are two months left before I take up my new assignment, and in that time there’s still a lot to do, including an Irish festival. So pray that God gives me the grace I need to be the pastor I need to be for the next few months, and years.
