We are a Marriage and Family Building Parish Committed to living the New Evanglization of Pope Benedict XVI

 

Hi!  My name is Fr. Edward Seisser and I am the new pastor at your parish, Holy Family.  If we have not yet had the opportunity to meet, I hope this letter will provide an introduction.  I am blessed to have the opportunity of being here at Holy Family, and I am thankful that you are a member of our parish community.

              According to the church records, you are graduating from high school this year.  I want to congratulate you on this achievement in your life.  Know that myself and the priests here at your parish pray for you everyday.  We rejoice in your accomplishments and pray for your future.  We pray that you walk with Jesus as you take the next step in your adult life.

              Our parish family would like to recognize your success and celebrate this milestone in your life. I am inviting you to attend any one of our masses on the weekend of May 26 & 27.  On that weekend, at all masses, all high school graduates present will receive a particular blessing for graduates and a small gift from the parish.  In order to make this recognition work, and for us to plan properly, I need you to call me at the Parish Office at 815-398-4280.  Let me know your name and which mass you will be attending.  Then as you arrive at mass that weekend, simply sign in at the gift table by the usher’s closet.  Sit wherever you wish and we will recognize all graduates present and impart a blessing after the homily.  All of us here want to have an opportunity to congratulate you. 

              I hope you will be able to take part in our graduation recognition.  May God continue to bless you and guide you in all you do. May you be filled with the joy of the Resurrection. 

                                                                     

 

                                                                      Sincerely yours in Christ,

  

                                                                      Rev. Edward J. Seisser

                                                                      Pastor, Holy Family Catholic Church

 

PS  If our records are inaccurate and you are not graduating, please notify me so we can update our parish census and accept my apologies.
