Dear People of St. Patrick Parish,
Today, we welcome any new people to our Parish and hope you will register as Parishioners of St. Patrick Parish.
Our Parish is very happy and proud of the 39 members of the Parish who received the Sacrament of Confirmation from Bishop Barber, last Thursday. We pray that the Holy Spirit will also help lead others of the Parish to seek this wonderful Sacrament.
In the Gospel of Luke, we find two of Jesus’ disciples walking to a village seven miles from Jerusalem called Emmaus. As they were walking Jesus came and joined them and they did not recognize Him until He made Himself known to them in as much the way He makes Himself known to us in every Mass.
Many of you drove or took transportation to St. Patrick Catholic Church in Rodeo today. Yes, you came to the Church building known as the House of God.
Hopefully, you listened or read the readings from the Bible telling us about what God wants us to know.
You gave money in the collection, to help spread the message of Jesus to others, so they can come to know Him.
You prayed as a group of people who love God and believe that God loves us.
Well, the most important part of the Mass was when Fr. Jun or Fr. Larry took bread, said the Blessing, broke it, and gave it to you in the name of Jesus who gave HIs life for us and so when we ate and drank the Body and Blood of Jesus, Jesus was really present to us.
Let us think about the Disciples joy and happiness as they shared their encounter with Jesus on the road to Emmaus. As your pastor, I hope and pray that you do the same on the way to breakfast or lunch, Costco, CYO games, family events, etc.
Let us also thank God for all His love for each of us.
God Bless,
Fr. Larry Young
Your Pastor
