FROM THE PASTOR

My dear parishioners,

Our pieta statue has arrived! It was installed on Wednesday. This is a scene of Mary receiving the body of Jesus from the Cross. It is a scene of sorrow and pain. The Scripture verse that spoke to me while we were designing this image was John 16:20. “Amen, amen, I say to you, you will weep and mourn, while the world rejoices; you will grieve, but your grief will become joy.”

This image has been a poignant one throughout the history of the Church. It reminds us that God is close to us in our pain and sorrow. And that, in his mercy, our suffering will one day be transformed into joy. I pray that this shrine will serve as a reminder for us as we continue this spiritual journey together.

God bless you all,

Fr. Don
