A Message from Father Nathan

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

Third Sunday of Lent

I am delighted to witness that we have a lot of faithful attending daily Mass.

Parishioners and visitors returning from all over our country and Canada are coming here—that is great!

May I request you all, PLEASE BE WELCOMING..everyone needs to welcome others as they need to feel the warmth of our community, please greet them and welcome them. As an extension of this welcoming, we will be having coffee and water in the parish hall so folks can stay and socialize with each other after we recite the rosary in the church.

Feast of St. Joseph

This weekend we are going to celebrate the Feast of St. Joseph. I have a very deep love for St. Joseph. He is one of the most beloved saints in the Catholic Church. His principle Feast Day is March 19th and is a solemnity—a Feast of the very highest rank.

We also celebrate a secondary Feast Day under his title “St. Joseph the Worker” on May 1st.

St. Joseph is, for me, a spiritual father; a protector and provider; and intimate companion; a pattern for a life hidden in Christ and cloaked in docility. His divine call by God the Father was a great and mysterious grace that cannot be easily reduced to a list of specific qualities; there would not be enough space to contain them. Such is the generosity of His beloved children.

Let us have a special love toward this humble, just, and faithful steward of Christ.

God bless you all.

With lots of love and blessing.

Ever at your service.

—Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

The cross today is the universal image of Christian belief. Countless generations of artists have turned it into a thing of beauty to be carried in procession or worn as jewelry. To the eyes of the first Christians, it had no beauty. It stood outside…

“I called to the Lord, the Lord heard my cry, and He answered me and delivered me from all of my affliction.” – Ps:34:4-6. I believe very strongly that our prayers will never go in vain. I came to India crying and praying to our Lord to lift my mother up from her sickness…
