A Message from Father Nathan

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

a heartfelt thank you

Your presence, prayers and participation in the life of our Church are truly a blessing

As we journey together in faith, I want to pause and offer a heartfelt thank you to each of you, the faithful members of our parish family. Your presence, prayers, and participation in the life of our Church are truly a blessing.

Thank you for who you are to the Church

—not just attendees, but as the living stones that build up the Body of Christ. Your very being, shaped by grace and rooted in faith, brings life and light to our community.

Thank you for your deep spirituality

—nourished through prayer, the sacraments, and your desire to walk closely with Christ. Your faith is a witness to others and an encouragement to us all.

Thank you for your many sacrifices

—those seen and unseen—that you make for the good of the parish. Whether it is your time, your presence, your financial offerings, or your silent prayers, each sacrifice reflects a generous and loving heart.

Thank you for using your time and talents for the Church

—Whether you serve at the altar, in the choir, in faith formation, through hospitality, outreach ministries, or in a quiet and humble way, you glorify God and build up the Kingdom.

Thank you for your commitment to the Church

—not just in moments of joy, but also through trials, change, and challenge. Your steadfast devotion ensures that the mission of Christ continues in our midst.

Thank you for your concern for one another

—for the care and compassion you show in lifting one another up, bearing one anothers burdens, and creating a community of love and belonging.

Thank you for your love for Christ

—which is visible in the way that you live your lives, worship and reverence, and serve with humility. Your dedication to Christ and to His Church is powerful example of faith in action.

As your pastor, I give thanks to God for you.

May He reward your faithfulness, bless your families and continue to guide you in all that you do for His Glory. Let us continue to walk together as one Body in Christ, supporting one another in faith, hope and love

With lots of love and blessings.

Ever wanting to be faithful to your service,

— Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan
