A Note From

Rev. Joe Koyickal

250 Years of Independence:

Looking Back with Gratitude, Looking Forward with Hope

 

As our nation celebrates the 250th Anniversary of American Independence, we thank God for the many blessings bestowed upon our country. History is not simply the story of what human beings accomplish; it is also the story of God’s faithful love at work in the world. This milestone invites us to look back with gratitude for the courage, sacrifice, & vision of those who laid the foundations of our nation & worked to preserve the freedoms we enjoy today.

 

At the same time, this anniversary calls us to look forward with hope. Every generation is entrusted with the responsibility of building a future marked by justice, compassion, peace, & respect for the dignity of every human person. As Christians, we recognize that true freedom is not simply the ability to do what we want, but the freedom to do what is right, serving God & our neighbor.

 

The familiar motto, "In God We Trust," reminds us that our greatest strength has never been found merely in our wealth, technology, or military power, but in our dependence upon God. When we place our trust in Him, He gives us the wisdom to make good decisions, the courage to face challenges, & the grace to work together for the common good.

 

In today's world, so often marked by division, uncertainty, & conflict, we are called to be people of faith, hope, & charity. We can each contribute by living our faith with integrity, strengthening our families, serving those in need, respecting one another, & praying for our nation & its leaders.

 

As we celebrate this historic anniversary, let us renew our commitment to the values that have shaped our nation &, above all, to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which calls us to be instruments of God's peace & love. May God continue to bless our country, guide its leaders, & inspire each of us to help build a future filled with hope.


God Bless America and may we always remember:

"In God We Trust.”


I will be away on our annual Retreat with our Pallottine community this week & the weekend I will be away making a mission appeal in California for our Pallottine missions. A missionary priest from India will be here for the mission appeal & the weekend Masses. Please welcome him & be generous. 

 

Blessings of peace and joy always!

Fr. Joe
