Bulletin: The 11th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Please join us in congratulations for our young people who received First Holy Communion this past weekend.

We pray that you always feel the joy of Jesus’ presence in your hearts and grow closer to Him each time you receive the Blessed Sacrament throughout your lives.

Please join us this Sunday, June 14th, for a delicious and filling Pancake Breakfast provided by our Knights.  

Breakfast is served following the 9am and the 11:15am Masses and is by donation.

A note of thanks from our Director of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd:

I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who shared their time, prayers, dedication, and gifts to make our children’s First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion such meaningful and grace-filled celebrations.

While we cannot measure faith, your dedication, witness, and loving service reveal God’s presence and pass on the gift of faith to the next generation.

A special thank you to our leaders, Father Matthew and Principal Maria Fonseca; our teachers Mrs. Wagg, Mrs.Powell, Mrs.Barbosa and catechists: Mrs.Hay, Mrs.Lacson, and Mrs. Nazareth; our wonderful choir; altar servers; the ushers, the teenage boys who participated in the Last Supper reenactment;  volunteers who helped with the retreat in the kitchen: Sarah Powell, Veronika and Julia Zochowski , Elizabeth Ajayi, all the parents who assisted with the reception; our amazing Mrs.Steele for organizing such a beautiful celebration; Mrs. Anita Alberto  for capturing precious memories through photography; our technical team for the livestream; and the parish office staff for preparing the certificates and our seminarian Peter for his presence and leading the stations in the church.

This celebration was truly a community effort, and we are deeply grateful for each and every one of you. May God bless you abundantly for your generosity and faithful service.

With sincere gratitude and blessings,

Margaret Zochowski
