They're Coming Back

Now that May is here, lots of Christ the King parishioners are returning to Cape Cod.  The die hard folks who claim Florida residency need to be there for six months and a day.  Some have already returned, having escaped the winter months of January, February and March.  And what a winter to escape.  I can't believe how much the parish spent on snow removal this winter. I stopped counting when we went over $28,000.  And several of the storms were on the weekend which has a negative impact on our income. (See how a pastor's mind thinks!!)  In any event, it is good to see tanned and familiar faces back in Church.  "Welcome Home" is a familiar greeting these days.  Pretty soon it will be standing room only at a couple of the weekend masses.  We have survived the Winter of 2014.
