Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon him.
And may his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.

A message from Father Gregory Luyet:

Unfortunately, we are cancelling the 250 hours of exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. Only 77 spots were filled out of 250. Most evenings had no one scheduled from midnight until 5 or 6 am. It is not safe to leave the Blessed Sacrament exposed and unattended. For this reason, I am cancelling the 250 hours of exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. However, everyone is still welcome to come to the Blessed Sacrament chapel during the time to volunteer or to pray at home. What is import is that we each take an hour to be in prayer for our nation. Our prayers added to those our brothers and sisters around the United States help to prepare our nation to be consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus."

"Lamentablemente, vamos a cancelar las 250 horas de exposición del Santísimo Sacramento. De las 250 horas disponibles, solamente se cubrieron 77. La mayoría de las noches no tenían a nadie inscrito desde la medianoche hasta las 5:00 o 6:00 de la mañana

"No es seguro dejar expuesto al Santísimo Sacramento sin la presencia de adoradores. Por esta razón, he decidido cancelar las 250 horas de exposición.
Sin embargo, todos siguen siendo bienvenidos a venir a la capilla del Santísimo Sacramento durante el horario establecido para ofrecerse como voluntarios o para dedicar ese tiempo a la oración en sus hogares.
Lo importante es que cada uno de nosotros dedique una hora a la oración por nuestra nación. Nuestras oraciones, unidas a las de nuestros hermanos y hermanas en todo Estados Unidos, ayudarán a preparar a nuestra nación para su consagración al Sagrado Corazón de Jesús."

With great joy and gratitude to God, we congratulate our five newly ordained priests as they begin their sacred ministry in service to Christ and His Church.

Your ordination is a beautiful witness of faith, generosity, and trust in God’s call. Through your “yes,” countless lives will be touched by the celebration of the Sacraments, the proclamation of the Gospel, and your pastoral care.

As a parish community, we give thanks for your dedication and perseverance throughout your years of formation. Be assured of our prayers as you begin this new chapter of your priestly ministry. May the Lord bless you abundantly, strengthen you in your vocation, and fill your hearts with the joy of serving His people.

Congratulations on this special day, and may our beloved Mother accompany you always.

Congratulations!

Con gran alegría y gratitud a Dios, felicitamos a nuestros cinco sacerdotes recién ordenados al comenzar su ministerio sacerdotal al servicio de Cristo y de Su Iglesia.

Su ordenación es un hermoso testimonio de fe, generosidad y confianza en el llamado de Dios. A través de su “sí”, innumerables personas serán tocadas por la celebración de los Sacramentos, la proclamación del Evangelio y su cuidado pastoral.

Como comunidad parroquial, damos gracias a Dios por su dedicación, perseverancia y entrega durante sus años de formación. Tengan la certeza de nuestras oraciones mientras inician esta nueva etapa de su ministerio sacerdotal.

Que el Señor los bendiga abundantemente, los fortalezca en su vocación y llene sus corazones con la alegría de servir a Su pueblo. Que la Santísima Virgen María los acompañe y proteja siempre.

¡Felicidades por este día tan especial! Que Dios los bendiga hoy y siempre.

Last night, members of our Youth Group attended the Holy Hour celebrating the ordination of our new priests. It was a beautiful evening filled with prayer, gratitude, and joy as five men answered God’s call to serve His Church through the priesthood.

Please keep these newly ordained priests in your prayers as they begin their ministry in their assigned parishes. May the Lord bless them abundantly and guide them faithfully throughout their priestly journey.

Anoche, miembros de nuestro Grupo de Jóvenes participaron en la Hora Santa en celebración de la ordenación de nuestros nuevos sacerdotes. Fue una hermosa noche llena de oración, gratitud y alegría al ver cómo cinco hombres respondieron al llamado de Dios para servir a Su Iglesia a través del sacerdocio.

Les pedimos que mantengan a estos sacerdotes recién ordenados en sus oraciones mientras comienzan su ministerio en las parroquias a las que han sido asignados. Que el Señor los bendiga abundantemente y los guíe fielmente a lo largo de su camino sacerdotal.

Dear parishioners, today we joyfully celebrate the 4th Anniversary of Priesthood of our pastor Rev. J. Jaime Nieto. We thank God for his faithful service, his dedication to our parish family, and for the many ways he brings Christ to our community through the Sacraments, prayer, and compassionate leadership.

Over the time that that he has been with us, his guidance, kindness, and commitment have been a blessing to all of us. We are grateful for his “yes” to God’s call and for the love and care he shares with our parish each day.

Please join us in praying that the Lord continues to strengthen and bless him with wisdom, joy, and many more years of faithful ministry.

“Every high priest is taken from among men and made their representative before God.” — Hebrews 5:1

Congratulations, Father, on your 4th Anniversary of Priesthood! May God continue to bless you abundantly. WE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU!
