Christmas Greetings
Dear Parishioners,
As we celebrate this Feast of Love, my prayer for our parish is that we will truly be united, brothers and sisters striving passionately as one family to bring Jesus to the world. Let us join hands in a spirit of mutual forgiveness for past hurts, appreciation for the strengths and talents of each member of our parish, and gratitude for our abundant blessings, and let Christ be reborn in our hearts.
I thank God for all of you and the gifts that you are in my life. It is an honor and a privilege to serve as your pastor. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
In Christ,
Father Francis
