I have lived in TV over 7 years, Tried St. Tims when I first moved here and felt it was clickish and like mist Diocesan parishes talked money too often. I never went back. When St. Marks was being built I was delighted as I am close to it. The first Pastor Fr. Sebastian was awesome, then he left and his assistant took his place Fr. Simon. Also a terrific priest. He worked tirelessly to get the new church built then his superiors sent him to a small church in need in NY just before our grand opening. This really upset alot of the parishoners and I don't think many have been happy since. But such is the life of a priest and these are not Diocesan they are Pauline Monks out of Pa. which I now prefer so much more down to earth. Most out of that monistary are from Poland hence the language issue but all very nice. Deacon Bob came from St. Tims and is super Deacon John is new. Anyway I will stick with St. Marks and hope many will heal in time from Fr. Simons being sent away.
