A Message from Father Nathan
My dearest people who are close to my heart!
Daily Prayers For Each of You
I hope and believe that you are doing great and staying safe. My prayers are always there for you. Please be assured of it. I thank the Lord almighty for bestowing me a chance these days to spend qualitative time in taking you all close to God in my personal prayers. Praise the Lord. Please be safe.
Online Giving
End of last month, we had scheduled to launch online giving for our parish. We intended to have some input information and have a few tables to explain how easy and convenient it is to give your donations for various reasons through online giving, but due to this virus issue, we were not able to do so.
Now, lots of people are requesting more information about it hence, please it’s already there on our Website. If you want to support our church, please do it online. It is extremely easy. If you want to know more please call me I will be able to assist you.
Date Change for Holy Land Trip
Secondly, we have also thought of taking a pilgrimage trip to the Holy Land in the month of November. There are a few people who are concerned about it, due to the lack of a vaccine and other issues. I totally understand we will plan it for next year. It will be canceled for this year. If you guys are saving money, please preserve it for next year. I hope by that time a vaccine for the virus will be available.
I’m Officially Part of the Archdiocese of Miami
I wanted to also pass on the good news to you guys that I am officially incardinated to this esteemed Archdiocese of Miami. I was extremely elated when I receive the official letter.
Words, I am very poor in expressing my gratitude to our beloved Archbishop a well as the incardination committee for incardinating me. May the good Lord continue to bless and guide them.
And, Most Importantly – Happy Mother’s Day
I would like to wish all of the wonderful mothers a HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY. You guys are especially loved by the Lord, He chose you to be co-creators of His creative mission. Thank you for all that you do for your local church, at home, and for this community. Bless you, all.

Holy Days of Obligation | The Catechism of the Catholic Church
The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains holy days of obligation this way:
Family needs or important social services can legitimately excuse the obligation of Sunday rest (specified in the Fourth Commandment). The faithful should see that legitimate excuses do not lead to habits prejudicial to religion, family life, and health {CCC 2185}.
