Please join us this weekend, June 27-28, following each of the Masses to wish Fr Rudi a ‘Walk by – Goodbye’ Farewell. He has been our faith leader and a member of our Holy Spirit family for six years and is now being called to minister to another family, Our Lady of Grace, here in Lubbock. Saying goodbye isn’t easy, but helpful. You may want to thank him, wish him peace and joy in his new home, or share a favorite memory.

You will only be allowed a moment with him, as ‘social gatherings’ are being prohibited by the church and you must depart the building immediately after your ‘Farewell’. Please wear your mask, use hand sanitizer, and avoid hugging or touching him so as to keep him, you and all of us safe. Baskets are being provided if you wish to leave him a note, a card or other ‘memory’ you or your family wish to share with him.

Face Masks The Diocese is requiring that masks be worn by anyone attending a Mass in the Diocese of Lubbock.

Please let the ushers know if you would like to say goodbye to Father Rudi after Mass and they will seat your accordingly. This will allow you to easily share a brief moment with him. If you will be leaving following the Mass, please let the ushers know so that they can seat you to exit directly after the Mass.

If you have a picture of Father Rudi that you would like to share in the memory collection that is being produced, please submit it via the Dropbox link in the middle of our home page. Thank you.
