Welcome to St. Christopher Parish
Dear Family,
This Sunday, we celebrate the greatest mystery of our faith, the mystery of God Himself as the Most Holy Trinity. Our God is Three Persons bound together by infinite love. Where One is, all Three are. They share one nature but are distinct. I could go on and on with the attributes of God but really would not begin to scratch the surface of this great mystery. God revealed Himself as Three Persons throughout the Scriptures, but most clearly in the Gospels as Jesus taught us about the Father and the Holy Spirit. This is the core belief of our faith. Let us give thanks always for our God and always turn to Him in our need and with thanksgiving!
I announced last week at the Masses that Bishop Malone has assigned Fr. Joe Gatto to St. Christopher as our Parochial Vicar. I am grateful to Bishop Malone for this appointment. I have known Fr. Joe for about 15 years and he has been a great friend. He served as my Spiritual Director during my time in the seminary and after my ordination. The man I know is compassionate, thoughtful, energetic, spiritual, a great preacher, and most of all a devoted priest. I have experience with Fr. Joe in one on one situations and in small and large gatherings. I can honestly say that I have never personally seen Fr. Joe act in an inappropriate manner in any of these situations. I look forward to ministering with Fr. Joe here at St. Christopher. Fr. Joe and I are both available to speak to anyone who may have concerns about this appointment. It is my belief that if you welcome Fr. Joe into our community of faith you will find that he is a wonderful priest who will serve us all well!
Praised Be Jesus Christ…Now and Forever!!!
Rev. Steven Jekielek, Pastor
