I would like to express all my gratitude to each member of the Church of the Most Holy Trinity. Even though the entire community was sad because of the death of Fr. Tim, who all of us love very much, you welcomed me with love and joy. Each one of the manifestations and expressions of affection were very important to me to start this journey as your Pastor. I cannot believe that I have been your pastor a year already. I ask God to continue to work for Him through my pastoral ministry at Holy Trinity Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I expressed before, my intention as the Pastor is that each member of this wonderful community feel that they are at home. We are one family who are walking together to rejoice in the presence of the Lord in each one of the activities that we do as a parochial family. All of us are disciples of Christ; therefore, each one of the members of this community is very important for us. All of us contribute something important and valuable in the construction of our parish mission statement which you can read every week in our parish bulletin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a phrase that probably you have heard from me many times: The parish we dream is the parish I help to build.<\/em><\/strong> We have been working as a family, a big family who dreams to be truly disciples of Christ. Each one of us has the responsibility to contribute with something so that our dream be a reality. No matter how big or little our contribution to our community is (as a lector, usher, altar server, volunteer, sacristan, CMA, collection, donations, and so on); our contribution is very important for the life and future of our communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not only my community, but it is the community of each one of us. This is our home. And because it is our home, I work so that my home becomes a welcoming place not only for each one of the members of this wonderful family, but also for those who are visiting us. Remember… this is our parish; let us work for our parish; let us love our parish; let us feel all the blessings by God through our parish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would like to express all my gratitude to each one of you for making this year very special for me. Family Mass, the Night of the Little Candles (La Noche de las Velitas), Christmas, Holy Week, Easter, Blessing of the Pets, Catechesis, First Reconciliation, First Communions, Confirmations, VBS, Eucharists, Funerals, Matrimonies, Confessions, CMA, and so on, have been wonderful experiences of love that all of us have for God and the Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us continue to work in this new year 2024\u0016-2025 for the Kingdom of God through all our manifestations of love. Let us continue feeling that we are a family who walks together to build this kingdom on earth. Let us work together as a big family who is always doing God\u2019s will. Remember… The parish we dream is the parish I help to build.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a1Gracias, muchas gracias! Thank you very much!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

God bless you, and may the Blessed Virgin Mary be with you always! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
