Holy Father’s Prayer Intentions
September, 2017
General Intention: That our parishes, animated by a
missionary spirit, may be places where faith is
communicated and charity is seen.
Dear Parishioners,
In this week's bulletin, I officially announce the
pending arrival of 2 Religious Sisters to our Pastorate.
The Sisters will be full time Pastoral Ministers and will
work with both our English as well as Spanish speaking
Parishioners. I want to thank Archbishop Lori for
approving their ministry within our Pastorate. This is a
great blessing to us all and will be a major step
component in the future of our Pastorate. We expect
that the sisters will arrive in Baltimore the week of
September 25th. I am also happy to announce that the
Sisters will be living in their convent located in the old
rectory building at Our Lady of Fatima.
The Sisters belong to the Missionary Sisters of Our
Lady of Perpetual Help and their Mother House is
located in Mexico City. I want to thank the leadership
of their Congregation and Fr.Bruce, Pastor of Sacred
Heart of Jesus and St. Patrick for their work in making
this blessing become a reality. I know that I can count
on each of you to welcome the Sisters as they begin
their ministry in our midst.
May God continue to shower His blessings upon you
and your loved ones in the week to come.
Fr. George
