For the last several years, we have been blessed to have "Vinny" on our parish staff serving as our manager of facilities and maintenance. Vinny has done a wonderful job and has overseen countless projects at our parish and school. Sadly, at least for us, Vinny has decided to retire and will be leaving our staff soon.
But this means we get to hire somebody new to join our staff, and that is always exciting. The job will be a little different than Vinny's job though, because this person will now also oversee the facilities in two other parishes, including St. Mary's in Castle Rock and Immaculate Heart of Mary in Kelso.
As always, please pray for this position to be filled and if you know anyone you think would be good, please pass this along to them! The official ad is below:
