As you all know, on Saturday, December 17 as I was setting up for the 8:00 AM Mass, I tripped, fell, and broke my right arm. It is broken near the shoulder and so could not be set in a cast. It is slowly healing and I am seeing a physical therapist. Because of the location of the break, this will take some time. I am most grateful for all of the Christmas cards, gifts and wishes. I am especially thankful for all of the prayers and support that I am receiving as I recover. I look forward to the day when I can be back in the parish with all of you. In the meantime, please continue to pray for me and be assured of my prayers for you. - Msgr. Peter Routhier
