Dear brothers and sisters,

Gathered in by Jesus as the beloved children of God, together as disciples we learn to share our life, our faith, our food, our music, and our families together.  Our parish is a place of hope in a world that tries to divide and separate.  On this 70^thAnniversary, we are grateful for what God has created in us and through us.  As we continue to learn from and share with each other, may our children and our children’s children maintain this spirit of welcome and hospitality for future generations, or at least for the next 70 years (2089!)

Happy anniversary, everyone!
