A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people closest to my heart!
God bless you and your generous heart.

Our Church is more than a building

– it is our extended home

Our Church is more than a building – it is our extended home. Just as we celebrate the joys and milestones of life within our family homes, I warmly invite you to make the Church the heart of your celebrations too.

While growing up, every birthday, wedding, anniversary, sickness, intention, or special occasion began at the altar. I encourage you to do the same – let your life’s moments be rooted in the house of God.

Offering Masses for your intentions

Offering Masses for your intentions – be it for good health, healing, thanksgiving, or for the repose of a loved one’s soul – is a meaningful way to deepen our spiritual journey together.

Flower Donations

If you wish to donate flowers to adorn our Church, I would deeply appreciate it.

keep our sacred space beautiful

Together, we can keep our sacred space beautiful, prayerful, and welcoming for everyone. Whether you choose to be humble and remain anonymous or prefer to share your offering with the community, both are perfectly fine – what matters the most is the spirit in which it is done.

this is our Church

Let us all remember: this is our Church, our community, and our spiritual home. Let’s care for it, celebrate in it, and grow closer to God within it.

I will never email or text you for money or financial assistance

Don’t Get Scammed

It has come to my attention that some of you have received messages, e-mails, or texts that appear to be from me, asking for money or financial assistance. I want to make it absolutely clear: I have never asked, and will never ask, any of you for money through calls, texts, or e-mails. If you receive any such message claiming to be from me, please do not respond. These are scammers attempting to misuse my name and trust.

Please stay vigilant and report any suspicious communications. If you’re unsure, feel free to contact me directly through a trusted method.

With lots of love and blessings.

Ever wanting to be faithful to your service,

— Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

Celebrating my 21st Ordination
May 10
This week, I will celebrate my 21st Ordination anniversary. I DO NOT like any celebrations for me personally, but when the priesthood is celebrated, I really like it. It’s not the person but the priesthood of Christ…

Holy Doors Pilgrimage Trip Report. We are back, healthy and renewed. We had a great pilgrimage to Rome and Assisi. Everyone stayed healthy. The places we visited were more than I expected! I have realized that I have yet to learn an ocean of knowledge about our Catholic faith.

Become a Prayer Warrior. Time is Precious & With Age we Gain Time. There is no doubt that most of our parishioners are age 63 plus. Some may be quick to assume that because of our age, we cannot do a lot to contribute to the community and to society. It’s so unfortunate to think that.
