9/01/2019!

A Word from Father David

From September 2-20 my friend Fr Vincent Byrne will

be visiting me here at St. Columba. He’s the Pastor of

St. Colm’s Church in a village called Kilmacolm in

Scotland. Colm is the Scots version of Columba and

Kilmacolm would remind you very much of Paxton, so

I’m sure he’ll feel very much at home here. St. Colm’s

is quite a small parish and has never had its own

rectory, so for the last three years Fr. Vincent stayed

with me at my parish of Holy Family, the next parish

to his.

Like many Scottish priests since the Reformation in

the 16th century Fr. Vincent was educated in Spain, so

speaks Spanish. But he rarely travels far and, although

he has been to Central and South America, has never

been to North America. He’s looking forward to this

visit and so am I.

We’ll mostly do day trips and the Mass schedule

won’t change while he’s here. However for a few days,

September 11-14, we’ll go to a cousin’s house in

Wells, Maine. On Thursday, 12 September, and

Saturday, 14 September, the Masses here will be said

by Fr. Gerard Messier, A.A. a retired Assumptionist

priest now living in the parish with his sister. He’s

been here before and said Mass here as well, so please

give him a warm welcome.

Although the Mass schedule won’t change, I will be

out most days with Fr. Vincent showing him around

New England. I’ve not had any time off in more than a

year and the months of transition to living back here

in the States have been pretty exhausting so I’m also

looking forward to a bit of a break. You’ll see me

around and might well see Fr. Vincent at Mass but

I’m going to try to make these days as vacation-like as

I can. He’s a very nice fellow and a good friend, so

please help me make him feel at home.

Fr. David
