Easter Sunday
Dear Parishioners and Friends of St. Patrick Church and Shrine 2024
As we enter the holy season of Advent, we are reminded of the power of hope, especially in this challenging yet grace-filled year of 2024. Despite the trials we may have faced, this year has also brought countless opportunities to witness God’s love and faithfulness in our lives and in our parish community.
Advent calls us again to prepare—not only outwardly through traditions like decorating, shopping, and gift-giving, but also inwardly, by renewing our hearts and minds for Christ. Let us take time in these weeks to reflect on the blessings of the year and seek God’s presence as we journey toward the celebration of Jesus’ birth.
As we approach the Year of Jubilee in 2025, this year invites us to lay the groundwork for renewal through acts of mercy, forgiveness, and reconciliation. The Jubilee theme of “Pilgrims of Hope” challenges us to grow deeper in our faith and to be bearers of hope in a world in need.
This year, we have been especially blessed as faithful people to come together in worship, service, and community. Whether it was through moments of prayer, acts of charity, or shared celebrations, we have seen the light of Christ shine through one another. Let this Advent be a continuation of that spirit of unity and love.
We pray that this season fills you and your family with renewed faith, enduring hope, and the peace of our Lord. May your journey through Advent, Christmas, and into the New Year be a time of grace and spiritual growth.
May God bless you and your loved ones abundantly.
In Christ’s love and Mother Mary
The Rosarian Fathers
