Happy New Year! Last week you read from seminarian Jeff, who’s now living and working at St. Gen’s parish with Fr. Rogelio.
Please keep Jeff in your prayers as he begins a new chapter in his faith journey. Over the Christmas break we also saw Deacon Alex, and seminarians Ivan and Ruben. They have all returned to seminary for their spring semester and would certainly appreciate our support and prayers.
I’d like to share good news with the parish community. Just before Christmas I invited a small group of folks to chat and brainstorm around the idea of adult faith formation and how best we can create a comprehensive parish plan. The group is now in the process of creating a mission statement as a way to help frame the goals and objectives of this initiative. This process is obviously a step in the right direction but will take time and energy to discern and implement.
As we begin a new year, please pray for the work of our parish community, that we might truly be disciples of the
Lord Jesus! I will pray for each of you and ask for your prayers!
Fr. Ray
