Anniversary dinner tonight with brother priests. Pictured here are Father Joseph Meagher, Monsignor Peter Kochery, Father John Large, Father Michael Gentile and myself.

A blessed evening of fraternity, friendship, laughter, and thanksgiving for the gift of the priesthood. Grateful to share this journey with such faithful brother priests. “How good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!” — Psalm 133:1

Thirty years ago today, through a grace I could never deserve, Jesus Christ called me to share in His Holy Priesthood. I am deeply humbled and profoundly grateful.

These 30 years have been filled with countless blessings — celebrating the Holy Mass, preaching the Gospel, baptizing children, witnessing marriages, anointing the sick, hearing confessions, and walking with God’s people through moments of joy and sorrow. What a privilege it has been to serve the Lord and His Church.

Nineteen of these years have been here at Saint Mary’s, and for that I thank God every day. You are not simply parishioners to me — you are family. Your love, prayers, encouragement, and faith have strengthened me more than you know.

Today my heart is filled with gratitude: gratitude to Jesus, to Our Blessed Mother, to my family, brother priests, and to all who have supported and prayed for me throughout these years.

Please continue to pray for me, that I may remain faithful, joyful, and surrendered to the will of God. And know of my prayers for all of you each day at the altar.

“Jesus Christ is Lord!”
Thank you, Jesus, for 30 years of Priesthood.

Can not say enough about the wonderful students of Saint Mary School. Their joy, kindness, innocence, and love for Jesus are such a blessing to our parish family. Every day they remind us why Catholic education matters.

At Saint Mary School, we are not only forming minds, but hearts and souls for Christ. Whether at Holy Mass, in the classroom, on the playground, or serving others, our students shine with the light of Christ. “We are blessed.”

A beautiful rainbow stretched over Saint Mary, Mother of God Church today — a reminder of God’s faithfulness, mercy, and hope.
