Shoulder Surgery Scheduled This Week for Fr. Mike Anderson

I am in quarantine today after receiving my nasal COVID test on Friday as I prepare for my shoulder replacement surgery this Tuesday. I am at great peace as I approach this moment, especially as I have been receiving encouragement from many of you wishing me well in greeting me. I will be at the Wyoming, MN Fairview hospital for the surgery and I plan on being back in my house either Wednesday or Thursday if all goes well. After a couple of days of rest and recovery I will begin the ever important physical therapy to regain flexibility and strength. My hope is to join you (with my arm in a sling) at the Summer Festival Mass a week from Saturday. Our parish son, Fr. Michael Johnson will be presiding that evening.

Thank you for your prayers and your encouragement in the weeks leading up to this day. I also am very grateful to those who have responded so generously to make meals for me in the next couple of weeks. Just as it takes a village to raise a child so too I witness and enjoy the village (parish) taking care of its pastor.
