Dear People of God,

Good morning to you all. The Inspired by the Spirit campaign of our tri-parishes has reached an important milestone. It is all because of your big sacrifice, and prayers. My gratitude to all those who have made a pledge. If you have not already made one; still, you can pledge. Pledges may be paid over a five-year period. Please do remember that if we exceed the goals, our parishes will receive 80% of the money back towards our Parish Projects.

I also express my sincere thanks to all those who prayed for me, wished me and sent me cards & gifts on my Birthday (The 15th of June). It was a great day. I am so grateful for your prayer and support.

Dear People of God,

Good morning to you all! Again, thank you to everyone whose generous pledges of sacrifice have given us an incredible start towards the Inspired by the Spirit Capital campaign. By now, you might have received another Campaign remainder letter by mail. All those who have pledged already, please ignore it. Those who have not yet pledged, please do consider sending your pledges.

The readings for the 11th Sunday emphasize God’s love for His people and His desire to save them from sin and death. God’s love is demonstrated through His mercy and grace towards His people, and through His sending of Jesus Christ to die for our sins.

Dear People of God,

Blessings to you all. The Inspired by the Spirit Capital Campaign is moving right along. Thanks to all those who have pledged already. Please consider, if you have not already, making a sacrifice for this campaign. My hope is that every family makes at least a little sacrifice.

This Sunday we celebrate the feast of Corpus Christi, which was proposed by St. Thomas Aquinas to Pope Urban IV, emphasizing the joy of the Eucharist being the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Having recognized the authenticity of the Eucharistic Miracle of Bolsena, in 1264, the pope, then established the feast of Corpus Christi as a Solemnity. Jesus shared table many times with his disciples. Of all the meals he shared with them, the meal that stayed in their memory more than any other was their last meal I.e. last supper.

Dear People of God,

Good morning to you. Thank you to those who have made pledges for the Capital Campaign! So far only 15 to 20 percentage of the families have submitted their pledge cards. It is actually an excellent start! This Sunday is going to be the commitment weekend for the Inspired by the Spirit Capital Campaign. So, I request other families to take this opportunity and consider, prayerfully to submit your pledges.

Today, just a week after Pentecost, the holy mother church celebrates the solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. The Trinity Sunday focuses on God as community. God is the Lover (Father), the Beloved (Son), and the Love which flows between them (Holy Spirit). The love of the Trinity makes God completely one.

Dear People of God,

THANK YOU to those who have already returned your pledges towards the ‘Inspired by the Spirit Capital Campaign’. What an incredible start! Today we celebrate Pentecost Sunday, coming of the Holy Spirit on apostles and mother Mary. The Spirit is in fact the Easter Gift par excellence. He is the Creator Spirit, who constantly brings about new things. Today’s readings show us two of those new things.

Dear People of God

Praise the Lord! Good morning. I express my hearty thanks for your great support towards the Inspired by the Spirit Capital Campaign. By this time, all families of our parishes might have received the Campaign Materials through Mail. This campaign material gives us the real purpose of this capital campaign. If you have not received those materials till now, please give a call to our parish offices. We will be very happy to send them to you. If you need any clarifications regarding campaign, please give us a call.

Today we celebrate the Ascension of the Lord, At the end of His earthly life Jesus ascends triumphantly into heaven. Today’s feast is a culmination of the events of the Paschal mysteries of Christ. it was evident that the death of Christ was never going to be a defeat, but a victory, exaltation, a glorification.

My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ:

May the Lord give you peace!

With sense of joy and optimism, I write and share with you our plans for the "Inspired by the Spirit" Campaign. As Catholics, our Lord calls us to boldly proclaim His Gospel, to live life of service, and to invite others to His promise of Salvation. He has bestowed upon us the gift of the Holy Spirit to empower us, to inspire us to move forward, and to do so without fear and anxiety but with energy, enthusiasm, and life.

Dear People of God,

Today is Divine Mercy Sunday, In the Jubilee Year 2000, John Paul II established this new feast. He said that we receive the Easter Gift. It is the special gift of the total forgiveness of all sins and punishment that the Catholic Church offers in the form of a plenary indulgence today.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Christ is Risen! Indeed! Alleluia! Today, throughout the world, the Church’s proclamation resounds: “Jesus, who was crucified, has risen as he said. Alleluia!” After 40 days of fasting and prayer we joyfully sing, “The Lord is truly risen – Alleluia!” As we celebrate this special feast, I especially extend a warm welcome to anyone who is visiting with us from other places or faith backgrounds. Where, O death, is your victory?

Where, O death, is your sting? Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Cor. 15:55, 57). We know God is powerful. He overcomes evil and even death. This gives us hope and joy. The Risen Lord is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Heb. 13:8).

Dear People of God,

First of all, I appreciate all the ladies of our Immaculate conception PCCW for providing Soup supper for the past five Tuesdays continuously. Then, I thank sincerely all those who worked for the Spring Fundraiser for our St. Boniface school. Marketing committee member, volunteers, Parents, Teachers, and Students worked a lot with dedication, zeal and more enthusiasm. I appreciate you all. I also thank heartily all those who supported this fundraiser by sacrificing your time, lot of stuffs for auction and cash donations. May God bless you all with His choicest blessings!

Today is Palm Sunday. On this day, the Church celebrates the triumphant entry of Christ into Jerusalem in order to accomplish his Paschal Mystery. Today we are not simply reenacting an historical event that happened long ago. Instead, we welcome Jesus Christ HERE and NOW—after all, He is more ALIVE than any of us. What do the crowds tell us today?
