<strong></strong>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-US"><strong> </strong></span><span lang="en-US"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:12pt">One of the things I have reflected on is as our own personal families grow, we may have to expand our own homes and cars, etc.
to meet the new needs we face. I have found that whatever changes I have had to make over the years, and may have worried about, somehow the changes were made and all the needs were met with room to spare. Another reflection I have made that somewhat baffles
me, although it shouldn't, is that whenever I have decided to donate funds for whatever cause I always have an abundance left over. It reminds me of the loaves and fishes. The apostles didn't know how to feed all the people yet after Jesus had blessed the
gifts, the people ate and had an abundance of leftovers. It appears that our parish family is growing and we need to make changes to accommodate the accompanying needs. What a blessed problem to have! The Lord entrusts us with children, family, friends,
and jobs and then gives us the grace and blessings to provide and care for them. When you reflect over your life can you see and count the blessings, some of which you have never even asked for? Somewhere I have heard it said, "It is in giving that we receive."
I wonder at the tremendous blessings we will receive from building His family and providing for them.</span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:12pt">

<strong></strong><strong></strong>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-US"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:12pt">Have you given adequate thought to this wonderful opportunity we now have to renovate and expand our worship center and educational/social spaces? For our ministry, this
need is most apparent during special observances when attendance exceeds our capacity for seating in the Nave. But other ministries are routinely lacking in their ability to function properly. Think of the size and layout of the sacristy, or the remoteness
of the “kitchen” from our social hall. </span></span></p>
<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:12pt"></span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:12pt"></span>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-US"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:12pt">At this moment in time, a request to move beyond thinking to implementing thoughtful and selective solutions to our current situation has been presented. If someone seeks
our aid to draw nearer to God, the least we can do is provide a welcoming space for this encounter to happen. From a broader perspective, a well executed plan can also lead to the conversion of more souls to the kingdom of God and inspire more of our brothers
and sisters in Christ to have a more intimate relationship with Him. But a project of this magnitude needs the committed support of all stakeholders in order to be successful.
</span></span><span lang="en-US" style="color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:12pt">As you take stock of the blessings our Lord and Savior provides through His sacrifice, please also offer your prayers that each household in our parish makes a sustained contribution
to help us reach our goal - to enhance our facility in a way that reflects the glory of God ~Bernadette Marquez </span><span lang="en-US"></span></p>
