My Dear Parishioners,
Next Saturday at the Our Lady of the Angels Regional Congress, one of our long-time parishioners, Cindy Rees, will receive the Excellence in Catechetical Service Award. This is a well-deserved honor for Cindy, celebrating 40 years of dedication to teaching religious education to the children of our parish. Please see the information below as our parishioners and friends are invited to the Mass this coming Saturday when Cindy receives the Award.
Cindy exemplifies the wonderful spirit and high caliber of our parish community. As your pastor, it is an absolute blessing to witness her dedication and leadership over many years.
I see many good people in our parish community taking up the challenge to affect what is going on in society and in some way, change the world with new growth and new life.
Without a doubt, if Christianity is going to live in the world today, it is going to live through us.
