FROM THE PASTOR’S DESK
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
This Monday the Church celebrates the Solemnity of the great Apostles PETER and PAUL. The
spread of Christianity in the 1st century was due in no small part to the heroic, courageous and zealous
efforts of these two men. May their example and intercession inspire all of us to be dedicated in continuing the mission of evangelization in the 21st century!
Sincerely in Christ,
Msgr. Fernando Ferrarese
Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo,
El Lunes la Iglesia celebrará la solemnidad de los grandes Apóstoles Pedro y Pablo. La expansión

dedicados a continuar la misión de la evangelización en el siglo 21!
Sinceremente en Cristo,
Mons. Fernando Ferrarese
