| In 2001, Denise and John Sheahan and a few parishioners
investigated the possibility of establishing a "Sister Parish"
relationship with a parish in Peru, South America. John had ventured
to Peru 40 years prior and through his studies as a professor of
Economics at Williams became much involved with the country and the
poverty that existed. Working through the Parish Twinning Program of the
Americas the wheels were set in motion, and a relationship with Santa
Rosa de Mazan in Peru was established.
Approval for the twinning of the Parishes was granted
by the Parish Council and the Pastor in 2002.
With the new year there has been a change in the
leadership of our ministry for Santa Rosa. Denise Sheahan has stepped
back from her position after seven very productive years. We have been
fortunate to have Martha Dailey, a parishioner, jump in to take over the
work. She will be building a committee to help her in this effort. If
you have an interest, please contact her.
