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.

As Always I am Here for You

Please stay healthy.  Please if you need any of my assistance please call me.  I will be more than happy to assist you in whatever way I can. 

Please remember I am here to be disturbed and minister to you all.

 

May God Bless You All.
Please Stay Safe and healthy!
Ever at your service.
– With lots of love and blessing,

 

—Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

What is the Sacrament of Confession? Why do we need confession? What are the benefits of going to confession? The Sacrament of Confession is one of the most unique and beautiful aspects of Catholicism. Jesus Christ, in His abundant love and mercy, established the Sacrament of Confession so that we as sinners can obtain forgiveness for our sins and reconcile with God, our neighbors, and the Church.
