St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish
Bringing People Into A Growing Relationship With Jesus Christ
|
|
This weekend we welcome Rev. Dwayne J. Thoman who is filling in for Fr. Gary while he is on vacation. On this Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord, we ponder the truth that the story of God’s love and desire to be with us is not for a few, but for all. We are called to share the “good news”, the light of Christ, with all whom we meet.
