During announcements at all Masses last Sunday, May 21, Father Giese congratulated Father Andrew Clyne, who had just received his new appointment from the Archdiocese of Washington. Cardinal Wilton Gregory has chosen Fr. Clyne to be the Pastor at Saint Edward the Confessor Parish in Bowie, Maryland beginning July 5, 2023. Coming to take his place as Parochial Vicar of our parish is Father James Morgan. Fr. Morgan was ordained last year in June of 2022, and will be joining us on July 5th after completing his studies in Rome. Learn more about Fr. Morgan at cathstan.org/news/local/with-varied-backgrounds-and-interests-but-sharing-one-call-10-men-ordained-as-new-priests-for-archdiocese.
Let us congratulate and offer our prayers for both Fr. Clyne on his new appointment as Pastor, and for Fr. Morgan as we soon welcome him to St. Jane Frances de Chantal.
