The main avenue for distribution of this publication is on the website, though this link. However, TSC is mailed to all who cannot access it online or pick up copy in the back of church. The advantage of the online PDF version is you get the full benefit of seeing the artwork in color (and, of course, it saves paper). If you would like to change how you receive it, please send a note to Chris McCullough at chrism@stvchurch.org (chrism null@null stvchurch NULL.org).

On Sunday at Town Hall meetings before or after the Masses, Parish Council President  Jim Casey answered questions regarding the upcoming transition as Fr. Dick moves out of the rectory and transfers more responsibilities to Chris McCullough, pastoral associate.

If you missed the meetings or still have questions, see the St. Vincent Leadership Transition Q&A.
