Dear People of St. Patrick Parish,
Last Saturday, St. Patrick Parish in support of the Hercules-Rodeo-Crockett Rotary Club allowed the group to hold their Fund Raiser and to honor our Community First Responders here in the Parish Hall. The event was a wonderful way for all our community to come together and help each other.
The Parish thanks the Rotary Club for donating two large electric fans to be used here in our Parish Hall for all the many activities we have in the Parish Hall.
The Parish also thanks the American Red Cross, The Parish Stewardship Committee and all of you who donated blood for the needs of our community.
October is the month of the Holy Rosary, and we should all make an effort this month to pray to Mary for the many needs and problems facing our world at this time. Even if we fall asleep and do not finish our Rosary, we believe our Guardian Angeles finish it for us.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the recent Propagation of the Faith collection, to help our brothers and sisters in India as they help to spread the Catholic Faith.
Psalm 90, our Responsorial Psalm today has us pray, “Fill us with your love, O Lord, and we will sing for joy.” As we sing the Psalm and other hymns at Mass, let us really sing for joy and reflect our love for our loving God.
The readings from Hebrews today, reminds that one day we will stand before God having passed from this life and render an account of our Christian lives. At that time, we want to hear God say, “Enter into the Kingdom prepared for you, live forever in peace, love, joy and say, Thank you Lord, living your words of life have been outstanding and I am happy to be here with you and my loved ones who came before me.”
God Bless,
Fr. Larry Young
Your Pastor
