A Word from Your Pastor December 31

A Blessed Christmas!

The Solemnity of the Holy Family reminds us that God chose to come into our world through the human family.   Jesus, Mary and Joseph lived through all the various experiences of human life and revealed the capacity that God has placed in our very nature to Love.  They lived together the mystery of Divine Life in a human manner.

As we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family, we are reminded that God continues to act in our world through family life.  The family is the fundamental building block of human society.  When we are able love at home, we are able to go out to bring the Love of God into the larger world.

Today we offer blessings of individual families with the hope that such a blessing will serve to form us as a parish family who are one in mind and heart as we invite others into God’s Family.  We also pray for families who are burdened and who do not find unity at the present time, that they will find in us the support they need that reveals the Love and Mercy of God.


As we say farewell to 2017, we seek to enter into a new year with zeal and faith, aware that God loves us and that He has entrusted us with a mission.  May our St. Timothy Family serve to witness to the power of God to bring light and healing into our world.  A blessed New Year to all!
