Greetings!
The New Year is always greeted with a big bang – fireworks, parties, food, including the joyful revelry of the countdown of the ball dropping in New York’s Time Square, heralding a new beginning. A fresh start on the calendar - one that is filled with hope and potential. As we bid adieu to the past year, this is also a time to express our gratitude for all the blessings we received.

Epiphany of the Lord
Epiphany means “to make known” or “to reveal.” Thus, the Epiphany of the Lord is to make known to all nation that the Messiah, the King of all kings, the Lord of all, Jesus Christ, who would bring salvation to many, was born. As Isaiah wrote, “the light has come.” (Isaiah 60:1). In this Feast of Epiphany, we also celebrate the arrival of the magi to pay homage to the humble King, Jesus Christ. Read More...

Bishop Cantú’s End of Jubilee Year Message
To Encounter, Listen and Discern: “We have come to the end of our Diocesan Jubilee, celebrating our 40th anniversary. We also close the Year of St. Joseph, which Pope Francis providentially announced, and coincided with our Diocesan Jubilee. To begin to prepare ourselves and our Diocese for our 50th Jubilee, I invite us all – laity, religious, and clergy – to participate in a Year of Prayer to convoke the Holy Spirit in our discernment process.” Read more... or watch the video. |
