Thank you for your support!

My dear friends,

Thank you for a wonderful Town

Hall Meeting. This past Thursday

we had a Town Hall meeting where

I was able to hear your thoughts

and suggestions for beginning this

new chapter in our Parish family. About eighty people came

and discussed different ways we could integrate the commu-

nities of Saints John and James and Saint Mary’s. I want to

thank, in particular, the St. Vincent de Paul Society for put-

ting together the refreshments. I believe that everyone would

agree that our first Town Hall was very positive evening that

gave us great food-for-thought for moving forward in the

weeks and months ahead.

I want to take this opportunity to acknowledge some current

projects: Saints John and James:

*The bannister in the front of the Rectory has been replaced

and painted.

*The Statue of Our Lady in the front of the Church is in the

process of being repainted with the help of a generous parish-

ioner.

*There are plans to repaint the doors and railings on the

Church and to repaint the stairs and railings on the Rectory. Saint Mary:

*New Blinds have been put up in the Fr. Gibson Hall

*The Floors have been stripped and refinished

*The Mats have been washed

*The AED device is now installed in the Church and we will

soon plan to have a short explanation/training for the use of

this device at both St. Mary and Saints John and James.

*New tables have been delivered I want to thank the many people who made these projects

possible, and offered their generous time and talents to ac-

complish these projects, and I want to thank in particular the

St. Mary’s society of Women for the above-mentioned pro-

jects at St. Mary’s for their generous contributions to make

these possible. This weekend’s Gospel acclamation seems most fitting;

“Blessed are they who have kept the word with a generous

heart and yield a harvest through perseverance.” My dear

friends, we have a lot of work ahead of us in the coming

weeks and months, but with our perseverance and dedication

to God through this community, will bring about a renewal in

faith and devotion in our home of West Warwick.

Have a blessed week and God LOVE YOU!

Fr. Fleming

Mis queridos amigos,

Gracias por el maravilloso Town Hall.

El jueves pasado tuvimos nuestro pri-

mer Town Hall donde pude escuchar

sus opiniones y sugerencias para co-

menzar este nuevo capítulo en nuestra

familia parroquial. Alrededor de ochenta personas vinieron

y se discutieron diferentes maneras en que podemos inte-

grar las comunidades de los SS John and James y St. Mary.

Quiero agradecer, en particular, a la Sociedad de San Vi-

cente de Paul por preparar los refrigerios. Creo que todos

están de acuerdo que nuestro primer Town Hall fue una no-

che muy positiva y que resultó en grandes ideas para seguir

adelante en las próximas semanas y meses. Quiero aprovechar esta oportunidad para reconocer algunos

proyectos actuales: SS John y James:

1.) La barandilla en el frente de la Rectoría ha sido reempla-

zada y pintada.

2.) La Estatua de la Virgen María en el frente de la Iglesia

están en proceso de ser restaurada con la ayuda de un fe-

ligrés generoso

3.) Hay planes para pintar las puertas y las rejas de la igle-

sia, y pintar las escaleras y la verja en la Rectoría. St. Mary:

1.) Se han puesto nuevas persianas en el Salón Fr Gibson

2.) Los pisos han sido lijados y refinados.

3.) Las alfombras han sido lavadas.

4.) El Desfibrilador portátil ha sido instalado y pronto pla-

nearemos tener una breve explicación / capacitación para el

uso de este dispositivo tanto en St. Mary como en SS John

and James.

5.) Las mesas nuevas han sido recibidas. Quiero agradecer a las muchas personas que hicieron posi-

ble estos proyectos, y ofrecieron su generoso tiempo y ta-

lento para llevar a cabo estos proyectos, y quiero agradecer

en particular a la sociedad de mujeres de St. Mary por los

proyectos mencionados en St. Mary por Sus generosas con-

tribuciones para hacer esto posible. La Aclamación antes del Evangelio de este fin de semana

nos cae convenientemente con lo que hemos estado hablan-

do: "Dichosos los que con corazón bueno y dispuesto escu-

chan y hacen caso del mensaje y, permaneciendo firmes,

dan una buena cosecha". Mis queridos amigos, tenemos

mucho trabajo por delante en las próximas semanas y me-

ses, pero con nuestra perseverancia y dedicación a Dios a

través de esta comunidad traerá una renovación en la fe y la

devoción en nuestra casa de West Warwick. ¡Que tengas

una semana bendecida y recuerda, DIOS TE AMA!

Padre Fleming
