On October 1st, Janet Holden, most recently the Business Manager of the Parish and before that Coordinator of Religious Education for grades one through six will officially retire. We wish both Janet and David the very best in their retirement and hope and pray that they will be blessed with many happy years to enjoy it. The Parish will be hosting a reception in Janet’s honor on October 2nd following the 11:00 Mass. Please drop in to say thank you and to wish her well. With Janet’s retirement comes a time of transition. We are happy to relate that after an extensive search, Bill Heiden, has been hired to take the Business Manager position. Bill and his wife Nicole live in Bloomfield with their five children and have been parishioners at St. Mary’s since 2007. We all wish Bill the best in his new position.
Help Saint Mary's Celebrate Simsbury’s History! As part of a day-long Centennial Celebration and ChiliFest on October 15th, the Simsbury Historical Society is holding a good old-fashioned Bake-off and inviting all religious institutions in town to participate! Each church/synagogue may submit up to 4 entries (2 cakes and 2 pies). Awards will be given for taste, appearance and creativity. Saint Mary's is an integral part of Simsbury’s rich history and the Historical Society wants us to not only participate in the Bake-off for a little competition and fun, but also hopes all church members will
come and enjoy the day!
