My Dear Parishioners,
We joyfully congratulate the 26 young people of our parish who received the Sacrament of Confirmation on Saturday, June 13. Sealed with the Holy Spirit, they are now strengthened for active service to the Body of Christ. We pray that the Holy Spirit will continue to guide and inspire them on their lifelong journey of faith.
In his homily, the Cardinal Mahony noted that young Catholics desire relatable role models to inspire their faith. He highlighted three young saints—St. Maria Goretti, St. Carlo Acutis, and St. Jose Sanchez del Rio—as accessible, modern witnesses for youth seeking a deeper relationship with Christ
St. Maria Goretti provides young people with an inspiring example of moral courage, the defense of personal dignity, and the radical grace of forgiveness. She died at the age of 11.
St. Carlo Acutis was a typical teenager who played soccer and video games. Nevertheless, in his 15 years of life, he also made great strides for God in his work, uploading Eucharistic miracles to a website to spread devotion to the Body of Christ.
And St. Jose Sanchez del Rio loved his faith and was strongly devoted to Our Lady of Guadalupe. He died at the age of 14 a martyr for the Catholic Church.
As pastor, I am deeply proud of the dedication our candidates have shown during their preparation and I sincerely thank the parents, and our Confirmation team. Their hard work, patience, and unwavering commitment to guiding our young adults on their faith journey was a blessing for our parish.
