Happiest Birthday to our Parish Priest and Spiritual Director of the Legion of Mary🎂🎂🎉😇❤️

**Happy Birthday, Fr. Totit!** 🎉🙏

𝟎𝟖.𝟎𝟓.𝟐𝟔

Today, your quasi parish family lifts hearts filled with gratitude to God for the precious gift of your life and your sacred vocation. Your birthday is not only a celebration of another year lived, but a thanksgiving for the countless ways Christ has loved His people through your faithful priesthood.

**Your calmness and gentle presence** have become a quiet reflection of God's peace. In moments of uncertainty, your steady faith has given courage. In moments of sorrow, your compassionate heart has brought comfort. Through your humility, kindness, and unwavering trust in the Lord, you have taught us that the most powerful witness is a life lived in faithful service.

Like the Good Shepherd, you have walked with your flock—not seeking recognition, but faithfully leading us closer to Christ. Every prayer you offer, every Mass you celebrate, every word of encouragement you speak, and every sacrifice made in silence has become a blessing that continues to bear fruit in the lives of those you serve.

As you celebrate this special day, we pray that the Lord who first called you by name will continue to strengthen your vocation with renewed joy and zeal. May He fill your heart with the peace that only He can give, renew your spirit when the journey becomes difficult, and remind you each day that your labor in His vineyard is never in vain.

May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Priests, wrap you in her loving mantle and intercede for you always. May the Holy Spirit continue to guide your every step, and may God's abundant grace sustain you with good health, wisdom, and countless years of fruitful ministry.

Thank you, Fr. Totit, for allowing Christ to shine through your life. Your priesthood is a gift to our parish, your witness is a blessing to our community, and your faithful "yes" continues to inspire us to love and serve God more deeply.

On your birthday, know that you are surrounded not only by our admiration but, above all, by our heartfelt prayers. May the Lord bless you beyond measure and reward your generosity with His everlasting joy.

**Happy Birthday, Fr. Totit!**

*"The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace."* — **Numbers 6:24–26**

**Ad multos annos! May God continue to strengthen your vocation and make you a living reflection of His love for many years to come.**

Antiphon.
Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array?

My soul glorifies the Lord,*
my spirit rejoices in God, my Saviour. †

He looks on his servant in her lowliness;*
henceforth all ages will call me blessed.

The Almighty works marvels for me.*
Holy his name!

His mercy is from age to age,*
on those who fear him.

He puts forth his arm in strength*
and scatters the proud-hearted.

He casts the mighty from their thrones*
and raises the lowly.

He fills the starving with good things,*
sends the rich away empty.

He protects Israel, his servant,*
remembering his mercy,

the mercy promised to our fathers,*
to Abraham and his sons for ever.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy
Spirit.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world
with out end, Amen.

V/. O Mary, conceived without sin.
R/. Pray for us who have recourse to you.

Let us pray:
O Lord Jesus Christ, our mediator with the Father, you have been pleased to appoint the most Blessed Virgin, your Mother, to be our mother also, and our mediatrix with you, mercifully grant that whoever comes to you seeking your favours may rejoice to receive all of them through her. Amen.

† In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

O God, who by your infinite mercy inflamed the heart of your servant, Alphonsus Lambe with an ardent love for you and for Mary, our Mother; a love which revealed itself in a life of intense labour, prayer and sacrifice for the salvation of souls, grant, if it be your will, that we may obtain, by his intercession, what we cannot obtain by our own merits. We ask this through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen

† In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
