Dear family, Our parish community gives thanks for the long and faithful life of Deacon Owen D. South, who fell asleep in the Lord on December 22, 2025, at the age of 93. A veteran, teacher, poet, and man of deep faith, Deacon Owen served the Church of Albany and the people of St. Paul the Apostle Parish with great generosity. He ministered with humility, compassion, and steady devotion to the Gospel. His love for God and for others showed in everything he did. Guided by the Holy Spirit, he served at the altar, visited the sick, and offered many quiet acts of kindness. The South Hall at St. Paul the Apostle Church is named in his honor and reminds us of his many years of service. A devoted husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, Deacon Owen built his life on faith, family, and the belief that "God is love." We commend him to the Lord he served so well. Together, we pray that his example of love and service will continue to guide our witness to Christ. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. OUR BUS TO THE MARCH FOR LIFE IN WASHINGTON Our Youth Ministry bus trip to the March for Life in Washington is coming up soon. The trip will take place on Friday, January 23, 2026. I'm happy to share some great news. In October, we applied for a grant from the Foundation of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany. The Foundation, created in 1995, is a charitable organization that supports the mission of the Diocese, our parishes, Catholic Charities, Catholic schools, and other formation programs by building long-term endowment funds. The Foundation has awarded us $3,000 to help cover the cost of the bus. Because of this generous support, and our donations, our bus will be heading to Washington as planned. We now have the funds we need to make this mission trip to promote the Gospel of Life possible. We are very grateful to all our donors and the Foundation leaders for their help. To learn more about the work of the Foundation, please visit www.FoundationRCDA.org. Please keep spreading the word about our bus trip. As of now, it is the only bus from the Diocese of Albany traveling to this year's March for Life. God's peace, Fr. Frisoni
