Only Jesus…

He is the perfect gift. Jesus is everything we need. He is the promise of Wisdom, Hope, Strength, Peace.  What we need this Christmas is “Only Jesus.” He is Emmanuel. He is God with us which brings us all that we need.

This Christmas, and always, see the perfect gift – Only Jesus.

Please join us throughout the Advent and Christmas Season as we come together to celebrate our Hope and our Faith in Jesus Christ.

Invite someone to join you for Christmas Mass or one of our Advent Programs. You will be giving them the ‘perfect gift’ of Jesus Christ.

God bless you and your loved ones. Be assured of my prayers.

Remembering Your Angels

Hear the Angels Sing…Gloria! Angels are all around us!!!

The tree in our narthex is filled with ‘angel’ ornaments each representing a member and family in our parish community. The ‘angel’ tree is beautiful and radiant. So is our parish community.

Take some time, in these Christmas days, to look and listen carefully… to see and hear the angels of God all around you.

Remember your ‘angels’ – your loved ones who have gone home to the Lord.

Christ our Light has Come!!

“The people who walked in darkness
have seen a great light;
Upon those who lived in a land of gloom
a light has shone.

You have brought them abundant joy
and great rejoicing;
For a child is born to us, a son is given to us;
upon his shoulder dominion rests.
They name him Wonder-Counselor, God-Hero,
Father-Forever, Prince of Peace.
His dominion is vast
and forever peaceful…”

– Isaiah 9: 1-5

Our Christmas song echoes the Word and Promise of the Prophet Isaiah.

Cast aside all your fear and dread,
come follow the light to Bethlehem.
The way of salvation revealed to all:
Christ our light has come, Christ our light has come.
