Dear People of St. Patrick Parish,
Our Responsorial Psalm 145, “The Lord is near to all who call upon him.”
Do we call upon him with knowledge, Faith and Trust as we say our prayers?
Do we really believe that the Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and of great kindness?
If we do believe this, how did we come to this knowledge?
Hopefully our parents and our godparents told us and showed us how God has done this for them and that is why they believe.
Hopefully, they either sent us to Catholic school or enrolled us in CCD classes that are now called Faith Formation classes for children not attending a Catholic School.
Hopefully, our teachers taught us about God and treated us with the love, mercy, and knowledge to live out our lives and one day get us into heaven.
Hopefully, on this Catechetical Sunday, we can all say there is still so much more I can learn about God and make my life better.
Some ways to make this happen is to read the Bible, attend Bible classes, gather in groups, to share our knowledge of God. Pray more and never miss Mass.
This week, we will be preparing to celebrate the Feast of San Lorenzo Ruiz, the First Canonized Filipino Saint.
Come to the novena on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 7:00pm. Come to His Mass on Saturday, September 26th at 5:00pm and then go to the Hall for a reception, good food, happy people and pride in a Catholics who loved His Catholic Faith and would not give up His Faith in order to save His life.
Thank you, today, to all who teach, set an example and help our children and youth, to come to know, love and serve our God.
God Bless ,
Fr. Larry Young
Your Pastor
