Jambo Rafikis!
I hope you did enjoy last weekend's recorded Mass. I am so grateful to
Twi and her family, and Senor Pablo for being able to help make these recordings for you. We
will be recording this weekend's Palm Sunday mass this weekend, so please watch for a link in our next email, on emai, on Facebook, and on our website.
To me this virus seems so unfair,and unjust and leaves us feeling helpless. With the Governor's "Stay home, Stay Healthy" order, now extended another month,
it seems so diffucult to reach all of our family, friends and fellow parishioners. We continue to pray for all our families, friends and our world. I am so proud that our family rosary group is bringing to our parishioners, praying the rosary together , this week we pray for all those affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. We pray together (virtually from our safe homes) Saturday night, April 4th, 2020 at 8pm
(note changed time from the parish newsletter). Join the Zoom prayer at https://us04web.zoom.us/j/115464177, or click on the link above.
If this time does not work for you, pray at another time that works better for your family. Asanta Sana to our family rosary group!
St. John Keep in Touch (through Groopit), our CEFF, Kristin Kent, is starting this program for our parishioners. Kristin has been calling some of our older parishioners. She will in the next couple weeks, coordinate staff and volunteers so that we may reach out to all our parishioners by telephone. If anyone would like to help make these phone calls please contact Kristin Kent -[email protected]. Watch for more information on this project coming soon.
I am excited about these two new programs we are offering for you. Am praying, that we can reach out to you and match up needs with those who have offered to help fulfill those needs. We are so blessed by such a generous community. Asante Sana Kristin for taking on such a task for our blessed community.
And remember tonight is the start of our St John School auction, this is a chance to see other parents, teachers, and staff from your safe homes. See more at the above link.
I am still doing well, Praise God! I am still available for any extreme emergency calls that may require my personal attention.
I continue to pray for all of you daily, please also pray for me.
Stay safe and healthy,
Baraka ya Yesu.
Padre
