Dear Friends,
For the past two years, the pastors of Stratford have been working on a strategy of collaboration by the five parishes of our Town. Over the next three weeks we will be distributing 3 handouts to assist you in understanding the Catholic Community of Stratford and collaboration. Pick up your copy when you attend mass.
Peace,
Msgr. Ryan
Dear Friends,
Thank you to all parishioners and their guest, who attended Oktoberfest. It was Wunderbar! The food was catered by Lasse. A day like this cannot happen without the planning and many hands. Thank you to the many volunteers who stepped up to make this event a huge success. We are moving the Community of Our Lady of Grace forward!
Peace,
Msgr. Ryan
Dear Friends,
In the spirit of our renewal Campaign, I am looking for several volunteers to assist with a project. Our parish needs to build a stronger computer ministry with our parishioners. Better communication is our goal. I am looking for parishioners who have computer skill in Office 365 and an ability to help train staff and our parish leaders to join a task force. If you have an interest and some time, Please contact me at 203-377-0928×112 or by email msgrryan@olgstratford.com
Peace,
Msgr. Ryan

Dear Friends,
I need your assistance. Please complete the “commitment card” for our parish renewal program. This is the way that we can plan for the future. Some people have increased their weekly donations, your commitment card will help us to assess the success of our program, God’s House, Our Home, and Our Little Church.
Peace,
Msgr. Ryan
