Dear SRW Parishioners & Friends,
On behalf of the staff and me, Happy New Year! I hope and pray that as we celebrate and usher in 2018 that it will be a year of blessings for all of you and your loved ones. I pray that we are able to give thanks to God for the blessings of 2017 and ask his intercession and healing for the challenges of 2017.
A few things happening at SRW over the next few days:
Feast of the Holy Family, December 30 & 31:
We will have our Second Annual Blessing of Families will be on December 30 after 4:00 pm Mass and December 31 after 9:00 and 11:00 am Masses. As a parish, to recognize the importance and prominence of the family, we wish to offer our blessings upon families. We invite you to plan on staying after Mass to receive a special blessing from me. Hopefully this blessing will bring goodness to your family all year long and/or allow you to deal with the challenges that may come your way.
Masses on Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God (New Year's):
Masses will be December 31 at 4:00 pm and January 1 at 9:00 am and 11:00 am.
Epiphany Concert:
On Sunday, January 7 at 12:30 pm we will have our annual Anniversary Epiphany Concert. The parish was founded on the feast of the Epiphany on 2010. We are now celebrating our 8th anniversary as a parish community. WOW! Kyle and our music ministry are planning a very special concert to celebrate. It is a great way to end your Christmas season.
Be assured of my prayers always.
Peace,
Fr. John
