Bishop Burbidge is inviting the faithful of the Diocese of Arlington to join with him in offering the attached novena to Our Lady, which begins on the August 6 to entrust healthcare workers and all who suffer from or have died from COVID – 19 to the intercession of the Blessed Mother.
This morning Our Merciful and Loving God called Fr. Jim Shelton to Himself. Fr. Shelton was 87 years old. He came to Holy Trinity in early 2011. Despite various health challenges in recent years, he was as active as he could be in his priesthood.
I will write more on Fr. Shelton in the near future. Please remember him in your prayers. It is our hope the next nine days to pray the Rosary for him each evening. Details regarding his Funeral Mass will be forthcoming.
God bless
FRVW
