Friendly Reminder: The Final Discernment of our Patron Saint 6/3 After Mass

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

As we approach this coming Sunday, we will be making the final discernment of our patron saint.  We should consider that our Bishop will make the last decision.  Also, it is most likely that the name of our patron saint will be reflected in the name of our new Mission.  Therefore, please consider the possible future name of the Mission when you vote (rank) the saints names.  The ballots will be provided after Mass this Sunday.  Please see the table below as a reference and keep this intention in your prayers.

Peace in Lord,

Fr. Olivera and Pastoral Council


親愛的主內弟兄姐妹們:

本主日6/3我們將舉行團體主保聖人的排序投票, 以供主教下週做最後裁決，請大家務必參加下午三點鐘的彌撒。

現在我們教友已提名七位主保名稱，因為我們選擇的主保聖人名稱可能會用於團體將來的名字中， 所以請大家在投票時也慎重考慮團體的名字。

下面的表格儘供參考, 正式選票彌撒後會提供給大家，讓我們這幾天特別為此意向祈禱。

主賜平安,

歐神父及牧靈委員會
