A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people who are all close to my heart!
Lots of love, blessings, and prayers to you all.

Thank You for Your Continued Support of our church

Some of you were proposing to me to have a second collection for the Parish Project that we are undertaking. There are very many of you already supporting it. I thank each one of you for your love and support. No matter how big or small your amount, everything counts – an open heart is what is appreciated.

Second collection for the Parish Projects on the last weekend of July.

I am so happy that you feel that you need to be a part of it. Blessings! It’s going well so far and I know that you can see the differences already. May the good Lord continue to guide us. We will have a second collection on the last weekend of this month. There will be a pulpit announcement and we will stop with that. So whoever wants to contribute please do so on that final weekend.

Welcome Newcomers

I do witness these days lots of new faces visiting our parish. When you see someone new to our community please extend a warm welcome, please reach out to them. Let them feel that they are acknowledged and welcomed.

A Note of Appreciation for all Volunteers

On this note, I wanted to appreciate our ushers, for all that they do for our parish community. They all are doing a wonderful job. May God bless them. May they continue to keep up the good work as they have a new leader now.

Thank you too, to everyone who is a part of our many ministries.

Please let me know if there is anything for the good of the community for the betterment of our people. I am open to it. I will contemplate and decern about it and do the best I can.

Let me wrap up with the great wisdom of St. Paul:

“beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worth of praise, think abou these things. Keep on doing the things that you have learned and receive and heard and seen in me, and the good of peace will be with you”.

God bless you all.

With lots of love and blessing.

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.

I am in Rome on the Holy Doors Pilgrimage with a Group of Parishioners. Please keep us in your prayers. Preparations have begun for Holy Week and Easter. We have planned the liturgies and all the details they involve. I wish and pray that our people have a meaningful celebration of Holy Week and Easter.
