We are planning to celebrate a Mass for our whole Pastorate on Sunday August 21 at 10:30 A.M. Eastern time at Benton Central School. This will be followed by a picnic. That weekend we would still have confessions and Mass on Saturday evening in Earl Park and Oxford. However the Mass at Benton Central would be the only Mass in our pastorate on Sunday morning. The Pastorate Pastoral Council and I see this as a wonderful opportunity to build unity within the parishes of our pastorate. I realize that this event is over three months away but it will require a lot of work to celebrate well. We hope you will put this event on your schedule and offer to help if you can. More information will be provided soon.
