Letter from Bishop McGrath

Dear Members of SJCCC

During the last six months we have been praying and working together following the directions of our Bishop on his letter of July 1st, 2011, with the goal of a more recognizable Catholic structure for our community.

A particular time of grace was the Workshop with Fr. Brendan the last November 12th where we received the answer to many of our questions; cherished together our past and projected our ideals for our future. As a fruit of this workshop we began to collect the different voices and recommendations from our community to be presented to our Bishop.

This is how I was able to send a letter to Bishop McGrath on December 16th providing him a summary of our work during the last six months and an outline of our recommendations. To give him more reference, I attached to my letter the Power Point presentation that was discussed in our last monthly leaders meeting of December. You will get all this material online in our web page.

Yesterday afternoon, January 2nd , I have received the answer of Bishop McGrath in a letter that you will find attached to this email. I think that this is an excellent news for all of us and the mature fruit of twenty eight years of sacrifice and apostolic presence of our community in the Diocese of San Jose. 

During the following weeks I will be working together with our Interim Pastoral Council as well as with our Planning Task Force for future steps, we will keep you updated. God bless!

Fr. Olivera
