We welcome, Father Dennis - The Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston has announced Rev. Dennis R. Schuelkens, Jr., will serve as our new administrator for the church and school. Many of us know Father Dennis as a dear friend and fellow vocations promoter with Father Chris Turner. Father Dennis has already helped us celebrate a few exciting events at OLP, namely Graduation and our last day of school service. He will join us as the parish picnic this summer along with a special visit from Fr. Chris!!!

 

 

Please, continue to pray for Father Chris Turner

Father Chris is now an outpatient HealthSouth Mountain View Rehabilitation Hospital, Morgantown. As most of you know he was surgically treated for a brain aneurysm in mid February.

He wrote this letter to share with you:

"Since I am going to need several more months of intense therapy, I regrettably realize that I am no longer able to continue to serve as administrator of Our Lady of Peace. This greatly saddens me, but I also recognize that the parish needs the stability of a full time priest to meet the needs of its people. Sadly, at this time, I am unable to fulfill this obligation.

"Even though I have only been at OLP for seven short months, the parishioners and children have had a significant impact on my life. I am truly honored to have had the opportunity to serve this wonderful group of people. I deeply appreciate how you have embraced me into your family. I am confident that you will show the new administrator the same generosity of spirit you have shown towards me.

"I wish to thank everyone for all the love, prayers, and support you have showered on me during my illness. I will continue to hold the OLP family in my heart and prayers. I hope you will continue to keep me in your prayers as I recover. I continue to be thankful to each of you for the many cards, e-mails, phone calls and gifts you have sent over the past weeks. I look forward to this new and exciting challenge in my life. God Bless.

"Entrusting you to the care of Our Lady, Queen of Peace, I remain in Christ."

Fr. Chris' new address is below:

Rev. Christopher M. Turner

130 Carriage Lane

Bridgeport, WV 26330

The prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up!
