Fr. Rich’s Story
When I arrived here 13 years ago, there were two food pantries that were part of the three parishes that would eventually merge. It was very moving to me that the people of this community were really interested in feeding the hungry and caring for the needy.
Fr. Rick’s Story
From 1974 to about 1978, Fr. Frederick Pennett Jr., otherwise known as “Fr. Rick,” served at what was then St. John’s Parish. When he arrived, his pastor suggested he take a month to six weeks to walk around town and figure out what he might do to help.
