St. Patrick Catholic Church

April 12, 2026

Dear People of St. Patrick Parish,

Our Parish has been blessed this Holy Week with very large attendance of people coming to St. Patrick Church, to encounter their God and the Risen Jesus Christ who suffered and died for all people.

The second reading at Mass today, tells us about the Early Catholic Church founded by Jesus who taught the Apostles and those who came after Him, to gather people together in communal life, to the breaking of bread and to pray.

When our Church brings us together to do this, we are carrying on the work of Christ. To see so many people come together to do this gives Faith and Hope to the messages and acts of Jesus.

I am always so happy to see whole families come together to carry out that action. The acts of the Apostles tell us that every day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved.

John’s Gospel was written that we may come to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that through this belief we may have life in His name and one day join them in heaven.

Our Catholic faith calls us to have faith in God and His Divine Mercy to all people. The Faith, we have gives us wonderful hope in the promise of eternal life with God, one day forever in Heaven.

I was so excited to see so many young people giving time to God at the different Masses this past Holy Week.

The Parish welcome Ryan Stephen Wong and Alejandro Asuncion Varela, who were Baptized, Confirmed and received their First Holy Communion at the Easter Vigil Mass. These two studied about the faith and then chose to enter a new way of life with God.

Is there anyone else out there that would like to join them?

God Bless ,
Fr. Larry Young
Your Pastor
