the bulletinSt. Thomas the Apostle, Helmville † Mass, Sunday 9 am St. Jude the Apostle, Lincoln † Mass, Sunday 11 am 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time — August 18, 2019
A Note from Fr. Jeff I am excited to be with you. I look forward to meeting you and getting to know you in our shared journey. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I grew up in Belt, Montana. It is 20 miles east of Great Falls. I have two sisters who live in the Belt-Great Falls area. I have a nephew and 2 nieces. Hobbies that I enjoy include: photography, page layout and design, and cooking. I graduated from Carroll College in 1988 with a double major in Theology and Religious Education. I entered Mount Angel Seminary in Oregon in the fall of 1988 and graduated with an MA in Theology and Master’s of Divinity degree. I was ordained in 1992. My first assignment was to the Anaconda Catholic Community where I was the Associate Pastor for 4 years. I then began and completed a Master’s degree program in Canon Law (the church’s law system) at The Catholic University of America. I have served at the Cathedral of St. Helena. I was the Director of Legendary Lodge for 6 summers. During that time I was also the Director of Campus Ministry at Carroll College. In 2003 I was assigned as the Pastor of St. Rose of Lima in Dillon, MT with its 5 missions. In 2006, Bishop Thomas assigned me as Pastor of Christ the King Parish in Missoula. Christ the King also serves The University of Montana. In 2013 I was also assigned Pastor of the parishes in Frenchtown, Alberton and Superior. I want to thank Fr. Robertson for his wonderful ministry with you. His attention to detail and wonderful ministry are truly appreciated. I look forward to praying with you, meeting you and getting to know you! (Please know that names not my strongest gift, so keep reminding me of your name.) All God’s blessings!
