Our Ministry Together in the Year Ahead

Ever since the Mass of the Resurrection for Pastor Damm last June, I’ve been urged by a variety of people — colleagues, bishops, Saint Peter’s leaders and members — to state, as accurately and definitively as possible, the expectations and mutually agreed-upon timeline for the conclusion of our ministry together; the transition to a new pastor; and Carole’s and my plans for our next adventure in our life together.
