Dear Parish Family, 

Blessings to you this Holy Lenten Season. May our time of fasting, prayer and almsgiving bring us closer to the Lord and to one another in His spirit of generous, self-giving love. Know of my prayers for you and your family, and my eager desire to celebrate the sacraments and various events with you in the weeks ahead!

Fr. Scott Goodfellow, Pastor
