This weekend, I will be on a mission appeal at a parish in Bristol, Rhone Island in the Diocese of Providence. I enjoy doing mission appeals in the missionary spirit of the Early Church that we have been hearing about in our first readings from the Acts of the Apostles during the Easter season. It gives me a different perspective as a priest here in the Diocese of Jackson, telling stories about our Diocese and our parishes, being Catholic in the midst of the Bible Belt South.
When I go on these mission appeals, I feel that I am truly representing all of you, my parishioners. As we celebrate the Most Holy Trinity this weekend in our liturgical celebration right after the end of the Easter season, may we feel God accompanying us each step of the way on our journey of faith. Father Lincoln.
