Celebrating Our Patron Saint

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

We will gather this Sunday, August 25, to celebrate our Patron Saint and our parish, but why is a church family so important?

Because church is like a family reunion. The Bible says that we are brothers and sisters in Christ and part of the family of God (Ephesians 2:19; 3:14-15). As such, we gather to celebrate the Sacraments especially the Holy Communion, pray for one another, encourage one another, and help each other. We need each other’s support to live out the Christian Life and fulfill God’s Will in each of our lives.

Faithfully,
Fr. Rick
