Merry Christmas from Holy Family Church
Dear Saints Alive of Holy Family Church, As the Christmas celebration approaches, I write to wish you a joyous Christmas and a blessed New Year, and to inform you of the special Advent-Christmas schedule.
The Season of Advent starts with a beautiful day of retreat and outdoor Nativity scene decoration. Joyful celebrations of the immaculate conception and Our Lady of Guadalupe follow. In the remaining days of the Advent Season, take time to attend Holy Family’s daily Mass and other scheduled celebrations, especially the Novena of Masses in preparation for Christmas. Holy Family will continue to offer more opportunities for the Sacrament of Penance.
Christmas is special this year because it falls on a Saturday, so the next day celebrate our church’s Feast Day—The Holy Family. This feast marks the 60th anniversary as a mission church.
The children’s choir will help celebrate Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
Thank you for the support you have shown to our precious faith community. You have been more than generous during these hard times. May God pour abundant blessings upon you and all your loved ones.
