Slightly adapted from the Parish Bulletin of St. Peter the Apostle Catholic Church, Boerne, TX:
Fr. David Wagner and Fr. David Cannaday have been administering and ministering to the St. Gilbert Community here at St. Peter’s Parish. They have celebrated Sunday masses at 7.30 a.m. and Wednesday mornings. Father Wagner was recently named the new Administrator of Notre Dame Parish in Kerrville, Texas, taking the place of Fr. Michael Boulette, the outgoing pastor. The St. Gilbert Community will be moving to St. Peter upon the Water Retreat Center in Ingram, near Kerrville. Sunday June 26th was their last Sunday Mass in Boerne. We congratulate Fr. Wagner for his new position of leadership in the Archdiocese of San Antonio and wish Fr. Cannaday true relaxation and enjoyment as he more fully engages retired life. Both Fr. Wagner and Fr. Cannaday will be present and involved in Fredericksburg Deanery. Each will occasionally assist here with sacraments as they have in the past.

It is strange that the parish priest of St. Peter the Apostle in Boerne, who presumably knows the founding pastor of St. Gilbert’s well, should call him Fr. David Cannaday, whilst he is referred to as Fr. Mark Cannady in other places (see “Reports from Our Clergy page 6 here http://ordinariate.net/pictures/NEWJULY24summer2014magazine.pdf ). Which is in fact the right name?
Transcription error on the part of person who sets up the bulletin? I have found a dozen references to Fr Mark Cannady.
Indeed, I too have reported on Father Mark Cannady – the error is still quite surprising.
I visited a church once with an acquaintance who volunteered with a local genealogical society. The dedications on the stained glass windows were noted as a goldmine of genealogical information, but, I was cautioned, “Always try to find a second source, or if possible, a third.” If you can’t trust a window you definitely can’t trust a bulletin.
Peace be with you dear Fr. Mark. Hope the Saint Gilbert community may grow in number of faithful. I love Saint Gilbert and hope to found prayers groups with people that loves him too. May God bless you and all community. In Christ, Fr. Carlos Marchesani
