FROM THE PASTOR'S DESK……

APRIL 11, 2004

Dear Fellow Parishioners,

    Happy Easter!  I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of myself and our entire parish staff to wish each and everyone of you God's choicest blessings this Easter season.  I truly believe that we are especially blessed to have you as our loyal and generous supporters.  Your kindness and generosity are greatly encouraging to us.

    I want to thank all of you who have in any way helped make our Lenten devotions as well as the services of Holy Week so inspiring.  A special thank you to Juana Fisher, Mike & Joy Camp, Larry Fisher, Ruben Garcia, Betty Arbogast, and their crew for setting up the La Conquistadora Room and the storeroom as our temporary worship space and altar of repose this past week.  Thank you also to Rosemary Fryer and the Liturgy Committee for the great job they did in organizing the Holy Week Services.  Finally, thank you to the choirs and their directors for the beautiful music that made our Holy Week Services so special this year.  I truly appreciate all the help from the altar servers, the lectors, the ushers, the eucharistic ministers, the music ministers along with their directors, Remie Campomenosi & Jesus Celedón, and the sacristans for all your hard work in making everything run smoothly. 

May the joy of Easter be yours now and always!

                                 Sincerely yours in Christ,

                                      Fr. Ray Tintle, OFM
