As you know, we are currently going through changes at our parish with “Into the Deep.” So far these changes have not been too vast, and that is a goal for this first year as we get to know our new parishes and learn how we can best work together in the future. However, Faith Formation is in a unique position because of recent staff departures, both at Sacred Hearts and St. Albert’s. These vacancies require us to make some changes in our Faith Formation program this year.
I know that changes can sometimes be tough, but your patience and your understanding are greatly appreciated as we strive as a Pastorate to still provide you with a strong Faith Formation program amidst the changes that we are going through.
Please reach out to myself at paul.jozwiak@shjmp.org or Jerry Baggot (Director of Religious Education at St. Alberts) at jerry@saintalberts.org with any questions or concerns that you may have.
Thank you,
Paul Jozwiak
Director of K-8 Faith Formation and Middle School Youth Ministry, Sacred Hearts
