A Note From Fr. Sebastian
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Jesus Christ,
How sweet is this saying, “I am with you always”. Even when I don’t feel or recognize His presence in my life, my Jesus is always with me. He loves me and cares for me. If I know this truth and believe it, my life is meaningful and glorious. There is joy in whatever I do. I feel like living my life. I am never alone and will never be alone. My life is a journey holding the hands of my Lord. Actually this is Christian life. All my concern should be learning how to hold His hands.
When I look back there were moments in my life when I forgot to hold His hands. Sometimes I refused to do so thinking it was boring and a kind of hindrance that took away my freedom. The amazing fact is that Jesus never felt so with me. He liked me hanging on his shoulders all the time. Whenever I hurt Him, He simply ignored it and forgave me. I knew all this stuff very late. Now He is my best friend. Please make Jesus your best friend. You might have offended Him sometime in the past. Don’t get distressed. He will forgive you. Be sure to forgive our offenders before we ask Jesus. If we are in need of anything don’t forget to ask Him. He will provide us our needs. We are lucky to have someone like Jesus always with us. He will take away all the worries and will make us happy. If we can be sincere and honest in all our dealings with Him and one another, He is going to give us the gift of eternal life. Life without Jesus is miserable and contemptible. So let us live a joyous life acknowledging Him as our Lord and Savior.
My love and God’s blessings, Father Sebastian Earthedath, MST
Nota del Padre Sebastián
Queridas hermanas y hermanos en Jesucristo:
Qué dulce es este dicho: "Estoy contigo siempre". Incluso cuando no siento ni reconozco Su presencia en mi vida, mi Jesús siempre está conmigo. Él me ama y se preocupa por mí. Si conozco esta verdad y la creo, mi vida es significativa y gloriosa. Hay alegría en todo lo que hago. Tengo ganas de vivir mi vida. Nunca estoy solo y nunca estaré solo. Mi vida es un viaje de la mano de mi Señor. En realidad, esta es la vida cristiana. Toda mi preocupación debería ser aprender a tomar sus manos.
Cuando miro hacia atrás, hubo momentos en mi vida en los que olvidé tomar Sus manos. A veces me negaba a hacerlo pensando que era aburrido y una especie de estorbo que me quitaba la libertad. El hecho asombroso es que Jesús nunca se sintió así conmigo. Le gustaba que me colgara de sus hombros todo el tiempo. Siempre que lo lastimé, simplemente lo ignoró y me perdonó. Sabía todo esto muy tarde. Ahora es mi mejor amigo. Haz de Jesús tu mejor amigo. Es posible que lo haya ofendido alguna vez en el pasado. No se angustie. El te perdonará. Asegúrese de perdonar a nuestros ofensores antes de pedírselo a Jesús. Si necesitamos algo, no olvides preguntarle. Él nos proporcionará nuestras necesidades. Tenemos la suerte de tener a alguien como Jesús siempre con nosotros. Él quitará todas las preocupaciones y nos hará felices. Si podemos ser sinceros y honestos en todos nuestros tratos con Él y con los demás, Él nos dará el regalo de la vida eterna. La vida sin Jesús es miserable y despreciable. Así que vivamos una vida feliz reconociéndolo como nuestro Señor y Salvador.
Mi amor y las bendiciones de Dios, Padre Sebasan Earthedath, MST

A Welcome Message from our Pastor, Father Sebastian
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Jesus Christ,
We warmly welcome all of you to the first Catholic church in West Pasco County. Together with “Our Blessed Mother” we gather at the Table of her Son, Jesus to get nourished and to proclaim His message of love in words and deeds.
We invite you to be a part of our loving Community being present at our Eucharistic celebrations and other events. Every First Friday at 5.00 p.m. is our Family Dinner Time in the Parish Hall. We gather to know one another and to build up new friendships. The third Sunday of the month is the St. Lorenzo 5 Star Breakfast Buffet. Dates are published in the bulletin. You must try it as it is the "best in town".
Please visit this magnificent Church adorned with colorful stained glass entrance doors, windows, Carillon Tower, Stations of the Cross and the Doves of Peace; stay here in solitude to get blessings upon you and your family through the intercession of Our Blessed Mother.
We look forward to seeing you! May God bless you.
