BOONE COUNTY CATHOLIC COMMUNITY

Our Boone County Catholic Community welcomes Alayna Longhorn as our new Bookkeeper for our parishes. She is from Pilot Mound, married to Scott and mother of four children.

So quickly we approach Thanksgiving Day, and the beginning of Advent on the Sunday following. With good reason the Church has set the same gospel passage each year for this Thursday:

Last week I had the privilege of con-celebrating a funeral Mass at Resurrection of our Lord Catholic Church in Pocahontas with Fr. Collison, native son of Boone. He may move a bit slower now, but still has that wry sense of humor, characteristic smile and gracious attitude.
