As you know, our parish is going through a big transition this year with Fr. Joe's retirement and Fr. Ignatius becoming our new pastor. The Parish Transition Team, invites you to watch a video (see below.)  It is a very informative and entertaining presentation on change, transition, and new beginnings. It is very thought-provoking.

If after watching the video, you have any comments or questions you would like to share, either in general or specific to St. Mary of Vernon, please feel free to contact the Parish Transition Team at parishtransition@maryofvernon.org.  

On Sunday, June 30th Fr. Joe will celebrate his final Mass as Pastor of St. Mary of Vernon at the 11:15am Mass. To celebrate this occasion the parish will host a lunch in the Parish Center immediately after to thank him for serving us as our Pastor for 21 years. 

We invite all parishioners to join us for this special Mass and lunch. Since lunch will be catered reservations are required.  Please Click Here to RSVP for this luncheon.  Please note that the doors to the Parish Center will not open until Mass ends and Fr. Joe processes over.
