A note from the Pastor… Our Lord has given us life,

existence on earth and forever

in heaven along with all our

brothers and sisters who have

fallen in love with God. We

thank Our Lord for this mar-

velous gift and ask to learn to

love more in the year ahead.

Without love for God and for

each other our life would be empty. With such love

we can live peacefully and happily forever.

Thanks be to God! God’s gift of Faith in Him and all that He does

increases our love for him, though we may not

always understand His path for us. But faith guides

us through the hardships to know He is always at our

side, no matter how good or bad we are, loving us

and guiding us, through our life on earth. We thank God for the freedom we have in a beauti-

ful and wealthy country where anyone can achieve

dreams that he or she could never achieve anywhere

else on earth. God has given us strength, personally

and as a nation. Through the intercession of

Our Lady, we ask God’s blessings to preserve this

freedom of life, of faith and of eternal happiness.

Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving!
