A Message From Fr. Andrew Dawson

Dear St. Fabian Community,

‘He told them, “Let us go on to the nearby villages that I may preach there also. For this purpose have I come.”’   (Mark 1:38)

It is a verse that has always impressed me. Jesus sees the big picture. There is always more work to be done, but Jesus knows His Father is calling him to move on and continue the mission elsewhere.

And so, it is time for me to do the same. It has been a privilege to share with you all, the past 3 years, our journey toward the Heart of Christ here at St. Fabian. Last week, Archbishop Vigneron asked me to move on and to take a new assignment as of July 1, 2020. On that date, I will become Associate Pastor at St. Joan of Arc in St. Clair Shores.

I had intended to announce this personally after each of the masses this weekend, but as the events of the past few days transpired, that was no longer possible. Still, I wanted to inform you all before you heard it elsewhere.

I thank you all for so many conversations and so many opportunities to serve and to deepen my own faith, in this, my first priestly assignment. You will always hold a special place in my heart.

During the remainder of my time here at St. Fabian I will continue to serve and minister to the best of my ability – to continue to share the beauty of the gift of this One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic faith with you all. I will continue to hold you all in prayer as I prepare to make this transition and I ask that you do the same.

God bless,
​
