Fr. Hien's Weekly Letter 05/07/2023

My Dear Parishioners of All Saints Catholic Church and School,
     Thank you for being a member of our church family.  Please join me today,
especially this Saturday, May 7, at our 4pm Mass, at which the following children of our
church’s family will make their First Communion.  They are Major Haynes, Justin Pham,
Kimberly Renteria, Jennie Pham, Sophia Blanchard, Prime Ho, Ava Le, Jovany Lopez-
Domingues, Ivan Mosqueda, Kathy Nguyen, Daniel Pham, Anh Phung, Leo Rocha, and
Sophia Tran.  Children, we are blessed to have you among us and we are looking
forward to celebrating this special day with you. Please know that Jesus loves you and
He will always be with you, thats why you are becoming one with Him today through
Holy Communion, to assure you of His perfect love for you.  He is in you and you will
always belong to Him.  He is your love, your life and your salvation.  Love Him with all
your hearts, minds and souls!  Be sure to talk and to pray to Jesus every day, especially
after you have received His Body at Holy Communion.  Tell Him that you love Him.  Tell
Him that you trust in Him, such as "Jesus, I trust in You".   Always be loving and caring
as Jesus has shown us.  Also, beginning today, please remember to pray daily the most
perfect prayer, the “Our Father,” given by Jesus, and one “Hail Mary” for each person in
your family, especially for your parents who love you dearly.  No one has shown greater
love for you than your parents have.  Please listen to them and obey them.  They will
help you be the best person you can be.  Always go to church with them and never be a
crybaby before them.  Please pray and obey so that you will make your parents proud of
you, and Father Hien too.  Congratulations and Jesus blesses you all, Fr. Hien
PS. Immediately after Mass, all the children will take a group picture with Fr. Hien and their
teachers, and then each child will take turns to take individual pictures with Fr. Hien.
