The new team of priests for Carroll County is set at arrive on June 27th. We have met a few times to begin to plan our ministry to the parishes of the county. We want to make sure that we are available to the people of each of the parishes, so the priests will be living at each of the sites where Pastors are currently living:
Fr. Kevin Richter Holy Spirit, Carroll (with Willey)
Fr. Brian Feller St. Lawrence, Carroll (with Lidderdale)
r. Mark Stoll Breda (with Mt. Carmel and Arcadia)
Fr. Shinoj Jose Halbur (with Roselle and Templeton)
Fr. John Gerald Coon Rapids (with Dedham and Glidden)
In general, each priest will oversee that parish or cluster of parishes where they reside. Fr. Kevin Richter, as Pastor, will have a rotation of office hours through each of the parishes/clusters. Information about that rotation will be provided in the bulletin in a few weeks.
For this first year, each parish can expect to have the same weekend schedule of Masses as they currently have (with a few minor changes). These five priests, with the addition of Fr. Tim Schott, will rotate through all of the parishes for the weekend Masses.
For daily Masses, the priests will largely stay in the parish/cluster where they reside. The schedule for daily Masses will have some changes - please watch the bulletin each week for the daily Mass schedule.
