For Parishioners Only - Issue No: 42(232) January, 2012.

FROM THE DESK OF THE PARISH PRIEST…

My Dear Parishioners,

We open the Year of 2012 by celebrating the Motherhood of Mary: the Mother of God and our Mother. Her total “Yes” to the will of God and accepting the call of becoming the Mother of Jesus the Son of God opened the new era of bringing back creation to its original state including the rebirth of Humanity through the merits of Christ’s paschal mystery.

Mary being a mother of the church and our mother gave us the possibility or rather the necessary grace through the power of the sacrament of Baptism, nourished and nurtured by all other sacraments of the church.

The Fathers of the Church called the sacrament of Baptism, the womb of the Church, wherein the person born of the flesh is made a new creature through the power of Water and of the Holy Spirit. Jesus’ baptism in the River Jordan and the Epiphany events confirm Him being the beloved Son of God and thus making us coheirs in the kingdom of God and God’s children.

A BLESSED NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL.

Fr. Uldarico Camus ofm, cap
