Dear Santa,
As the new pastor of Our Lady Queen of Peace R.C. Church I have but a few prayers that I ask in the Name of Jesus for our parish for Christmas this year:
That all of our parishioners come to believe in the real and true presence of Jesus, true God and true man, crucified and resurrected, in the Eucharist. And, with this faith fulfill the third commandment and attend Mass every Sunday and on all holy days.
That sadness, depression, grief and sinfulness be healed in my parishioner’s hearts, minds, bodies and souls by receiving the mystical cleaning of Jesus’s precious blood poured-out over them in the Sacrament of Penance.
That all of our parishioners are filled with faith, hope and love as they have re-confirmed their dignity, value, preciousness, meaning and purpose for their life because of the Incarnation of the Word of God who bestows these gifts upon all humanity.
That our parish community may continue to be united in faith, sacraments and by the pastors of the Catholic Church as we journey together offering witness to the world of the power of Christ Jesus to heal and unite us.
That our parishioners will continue to be active and get involved in the many ministries, apostolates, activities and liturgies at the best parish in Sussex County!
Santa, this is my Christmas list. With hope in the power of the Lord to bring all things to fruition that are asked in his holy Name,
I am yours,
Fr. Philip-Michael
