Dear Parish Family,
It is with great sorrow that I share with you that Fr. Bernie Ahern has passed away this morning. I was with him at Baptist South hospital during his final moments and administered the sacraments.
More details regarding the funeral mass and plans will be forthcoming.
Please keep Fr. Bernie and his family in your prayers.
