Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
As we continue to bask in the joy of the birth of Jesus Christ, it is a wonderful time to reflect on the many blessings that God has given to us. I certainly am blessed with the opportunity to pray with and for you at mass. I also appreciate the many other interactions which I’ve had
with you throughout this past year, and I look forward to our time together in the new year.
This time of year is also a wonderful opportunity to express my thanks to all of you who sent me various Christmas gifts, cards, and other best wishes for the season. My heart is very touched by every prayer, card, gift, and wish that I receive. Words cannot describe the gratitude I feel in my heart for all of you. May the light of Christ shine in your hearts today and every day. Help us Lord to be instruments of light, mercy, justice, peace, and love. Please know that all of you are in my
daily prayers.
Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year,
Fr. Todd
As we begin the New Year of 2020, family is a very
