When I came here 16 years ago, I had no particular plans in mind, only to serve you by teaching the beauty and the richness of the truths of our Catholic faith that Jesus taught us. And in teaching and learning these truths the joy of the Gospel 'captures' us and we and grow into a deep desire to live the faith as Jesus called us to do. "I have come that you may have life, and that you may have it more abundantly." During these last 16 years the Holy Spirit has inspired and guided us in developing a plan to renovate our beautiful Church. The plan was made possible thru the prayers, hard work, patience and generosity of you, the Peo- ple of God. this work shall stand as a testimo- ny of faith to inspire and strengthen God's People for generations to come. When Bro. Robert Lentz, O.F.M. was painting the icons, he often commented: "I want these icons to be an inspiration to those who see them a hundred years and beyond, especially the children." He Father Adam’s always added the children. Already we can see are truly prophetic his words are. Final Letter My shortcoming and failings were part of these years, too. The bible clearly reminds us that none of us is without sin; and priests are no exception. And for anyone who I may have A SIMPLE PRAYER offended in any way, I beg their forgiveness and understanding and "In these days of awful sin, hatred of prayers. God, the Lord wants to gather around Our faith is celebrated and made manifest in the great prayer of the Eu- Him a legion of chosen souls devoted, charist, the Liturgy of the Mass. It is here that we are "centered" on heart and soul to Him and His inter- God, not on ourselves. Pope Benedict XVI clearly reminded us of this ests. Upon whom He may always very important truth.

"I whose only pain will be that they can pray that they may be ONE as the not do more and give and suffer more Father and I are ONE." This unity is for Him who has done so much for about the love that Jesus desires for them. In a word, souls who are not as us and with us. the Eucharist is the the rest of men, and who may be fools, Sacrament of Divine Lord, of Divine perhaps, in the eyes of the world, For Intimacy.
