PASTOR’S CORNER
December 28, 2025
May Jesus Christ, Son of God and Son of Mary who is the way to eternal life, be with you!
The year 2025 is now history. This past year was filled with a roller coaster of events. Thanks be to God, our strong faith, and trust, in a good God, we were able to blow through this past year. As we enter into this new year, we continue to rely on our faith, trusting in God, and remain steadfast in hope. We rely on God’s grace and guidance as we journey in this year of 2026.
I want to take this opportunity to thank every parishioners for your stewardship to our parish, for your unwavering faith, and your fellowship with each other. Every parish event planned, many of our parishioners supported it. Your encouragement, and concern, for fellow parishioners in is a demonstration of your Discipleship in Mission. Your prayers, energy, enthusiasm, and willingness to do whatever for our parish is commendable. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as Pastor, Shepherd, and Leader of our parish. I took forward to the journey that this new year will take us. Thank you for who you are and how your represent our parish wherever you go.
Today, we celebrate the feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mar y and Joseph. We hear in today’s scripture practical guidance and wonderful inspiration regarding treating those closes to us. We pray though the intercession, of the Holy Family for their guidance and eternal protection.
Peace and Blessings,
Msgr. Britto
