Hello friends,
To start with I want to thank you all who for your participation at the parish Annual Barbecue over the weekend. It was such a wonderful time to come together as a parish. I hope that you all enjoyed it together with your family and friends. This event wouldn’t of been possible without your support and participation. I want to take this time also to thank the barbecue committee for the hard work they put into this event and for their commitment to the parish. I cannot name you all, but all of you that were a part of the event, THANK YOU! On the other hand, I want to share with you all about my experience in Rome and Croatia. I was able to take a group of 22 people in a pilgrimage to different places in these two countries. The first place that we visited was Medjugorje, a small town located in the Herzegovina region of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is a spiritual place visited by hundreds of people daily. There is the hill where our lady has appeared several times. We had the opportunity to climbed it and pray by the statue of Mary. From there we traveled to Italy where we visited Assisi, Siena, and Rome. Our last day in Rome, we attended the ordination of our seminarian (now deacon) Ivan Torres. It was a beautiful celebration in the basilica of St. Peter where cardinals, bishops, priests and faithful attended the event. It was a moment of joy for us to be part of the ordination of Ivan and other 31 candidates. We came back with many great memories and we hope to continue creating more.
Hola amigos,
Primeramente, quiero expresar mi gratitud a todos los parroquianos por su participación en nuestra fiesta parroquial. Gracias a todos ustedes que tuvieron la oportunidad de atender y de divertirse con su familiares y amistades. ¡A todos aquellos que nos ayudaron de una manera u otra, GRACIAS! Este evento no seria posible sin su participación y compromiso. También quiero agradecer a al grupo coordinador que puso muchas horas de planeamiento y de trabajo. En breve quiero compartirles un poquito de mi experiencia en Croacia e Italia. Un grupo de 22 personas tuvimos la oportunidad de viajar a diferentes lugares en estos dos países. Visitamos un lugar mariano donde nuestra madre María se ha aparecidos en Medjugorje. De ahí visitamos otros lugares en Italia, como Asís, Siena, Roma, y la ciudad del Vaticano. Todos estos lugares muy históricos y espirituales con una riqueza inmensa. El ultimo día de nuestro viaje, tuvimos el privilegio de participar de la ordenación diaconal de nuestro seminarista Iván Torres. Fue un evento muy especial para el y para todos nosotros. Fr. Alex Urena
