New Tower Update
Questions Answered
Very many of you have been inquiring about our church tower, when are we starting work and everything involved with it. Some of you are concerned about the financial aspect of it and some of you want to contribute toward it and want to be involved in it. God bless your heart.
Discernment
I thought about it long before and prayed to discern about it. We discussed it with the parish and financial council. I want to thank and express my appreciation to Mr. Guy DeJohn, who is very much involved with this in detail and has spent years working toward it. God bless him.
City Permitting
I am so delighted that our system, like our city, expects lots of details to get the permit. We are working on them. We have the approval of the city and of the Archdiocese, and now we are working on the final details. We will start soon and will be done sooner.
Want to Contribute?
Those of you who want to contribute to this, please do so. If you want your name to be imprinted on the church tower like a paver, we can have a plaque board and a donor’s wall. If you want to be acknowledged, we can do that; if you want to be anonymous, we can do that. Please contribute whatever you can.
Cost
We foresee that it may be around $800,000. I have saved a good amount of it. But we need at least $250.000 more to complete the whole work, hence your benevolence would be very much appreciated
God bless you all.
With prayers and blessings, and ever at your service
— Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

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}.

Feast of Joachim and Anne | the parents of Jesus’ mother, Mary. On July 26 the Roman Catholic Church commemorates the parents of the Virgin Mary, Saints Joachim and Anne. The couple’s faith and perseverance brought them through the sorrow of childlessness, to the joy of conceiving and raising the immaculate and sinless woman who would give birth to Christ.
