From The Pastor’s Desk

May Jesus Christ, our risen Lord and Savior, be with you!

The season of Lent has quickly come to an end. Throughout Lent, we heard themes of repentance, charity, spiritual deepening of one’s faith, trust in the Lord’s compassion, mercy and keep “Looking to Jesus”, as our Lenten theme encouraged us to do. Now that we have entered into the season of Easter, may we continue to keep “Looking to Jesus.” He is our hope, and “hope does not disappoint.”

I want to thank everyone who made our Lenten season spiritually fulfilling. To all the ministers of the Word, Eucharist, Servers, and musicians, thank you. To all our parishioners for your on-going support to our parish, thank you.

The season of Easter encourages us to be Christ’s messengers of faith, hope, and invitation to follow Christ. It is important that we take on that message. Invite people to worship with us and encourage our lax parishioners to return to Church. This is important to our Church and to our faith.

Thank you to everyone for your thoughtfulness, prayers, and condolence on the death of Fr. Fisher. He has been a part of St. Cyprian Parish for close to twenty years. During that time, he touched the lives of many parishioners and non-parishioners. Fr. Fisher fought the good fight and completed his earthly race. May he now rest in peace.

Easter is a reminder to us that our earthly life is only for a little while. But we are reminded of what awaits us after our earthly life. Jesus taught us this and that’s why we celebrate Easter.

On behalf of Fr. Rene, Fr. Richard, Deacon Anthony, and our parish staff, have a Happy and Blessed Easter.

Peace and Blessings,
Msgr. Britto
