“For nearly 30 years I have been privileged to serve this good parish … and
so there are many thank you’s in order – to all former pastors, of which I am
number 5 – to all former associate priests who served these many years, right
up to Fr. Duberney, Fr. Pat, along with Deacons Henry, Jerry, Juan, Bill, Greg
and Tony – and most especially, Fr. Edwin, your newest pastor.
And most especially to each of you and all of you that are the true heart and
soul of St. Mary Magdalen. You have been my joy and my comfort. You have been my
inspiration. You have been family to me.”

Fr. Charlie Mitchell, 1994-2023 Pastor
