Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
First, I thank all our parishioners for your love, support, and friendship. I am especially grateful to the Knights of Columbus for their generous support, and to the Women of Grace for their dedication in caring for our church. I also extend my heartfelt appreciation to all our volunteers—ushers, readers, and Eucharistic ministers— for your faithful and tireless service. You are a true blessing to our parish community.
As we celebrate the joy of Easter, we are reminded that the Resurrection of the Lord is the greatest sign of hope. It is a time of new life, renewal, and trust in God’s promises.
With prayerful wishes,
Fr. Paul
Always Remember You Are Beautiful & Be Happy!
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Grace and peace to you as we enter into the most sacred
time of our liturgical year—Holy Week.
During this Holy Week, we are called to examine our lives and draw closer to the Lord with sincere and humble hearts. Let us pray for one another during this sacred time. May this Holy Week renew our faith, strengthen our hope, and deepen our love for God and for one another. Let us walk together toward Easter, trusting in the Lord. Let us surrender all our sufferings and struggles into His loving hands. May the Risen Lord abundantly bless you and yournfamilies, and grant you His lasting joy and peace
Yours in Christ, Fr. Paul
Always Remember You Are Beautiful & Be Happy!
Dear Parishioners,
This is a very heartfelt Lenten prayer. It expresses our trust, in our loving God.
Dear God,
Thank You for another day by Your grace. Your love holds me even when I am struggling inside. You know my battles, my hidden worries, and my weaknesses. You are my refuge and my comfort. When I see no way, You create one. When my words fail, You understand my heart. You are my Good Shepherd. Please be with me always. Guide me, lead me, and keep me close to You. Amen
Prayerfully,
Fr. Paul
Always Remember You Are Beautiful & Be Happy!
Dear Parishioners,
“Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.” — Augustine of Hippo
These words beautifully capture the balance of trust and effort in the Christian life. During this holy season of Lent, let us pray together as a family and work together in faith and love. May our prayers draw us closer to God, and may our actions reflect His grace in our daily lives.
“Rejoice in the Lord always.” (Philippians 4:4)
Prayerfully,,
Fr. Paul
Dear Parishioners,
We all know Padre Pio, one of the most beloved saints. He once said: “Pray, hope, and don’t worry.” His total surrender to the will of God was the source of his great spiritual strength. We can pray these simple words with trust: “O Jesus, I surrender myself to You; take care of everything.” Lent is the perfect time for us to surrender ourselves more fully to God and to place all our worries in His hands. May this season help us grow in faith, trust, and love.
Prayerfully,
Fr. Paul
Always Remember You Are Beautiful & Be Happy!
