𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫’𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐧 – 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟐, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑

During this month of November, our thoughts are turned toward the Holiday of Thanksgiving and what lies at the heart of this holiday. Gratitude dominates my thoughts and prayers during this month. I am grateful to God for the many blessings that He has bestowed upon me in my life. One of the greatest blessings that I have been given is our St. Stephen-St. Patrick & Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish Family. I feel blessed to be able to serve the people of this special parish. I am grateful to God for the many ways that the People of our parish have opened up their lives and hearts to me. I am grateful to God for the extremely talented staff that support and strengthen my priestly ministry. I am also grateful to God that I have the opportunity to minister with Fr. Thomas and Deacon Tony. During this month of November, I feel extremely blessed as I reflect upon the many ways that God has blessed my life. This weekend’s Gospel speaks to us about the importance of being ready to meet the Lord Jesus, our Bridegroom. Too many times we focus, not on our Lord Jesus, but upon the passing things of this world. Let us take some time this week to refocus our lives on the many ways that God reveals Himself to us this week.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
