CONFESSION

SATURDAY: 4:00–5:00 PM in the main church, or by appointment with a priest.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

I am delighted to be appointed as pastor of Blessed Sacrament parish, “For the glory of God and the well being of Christ’s holy Church,” as Cardinal Gregory’s appointment letter stipulates. I will dedicate myself to these ends as I love and serve you to the best of my ability.

I remember when Pope Francis was elected pope and came out to the loggia of St. Peter’s Basilica for his introduction to the world. Understandably, he had that “deer in the headlights” look about him and appeared awkward and shy. In that moment that must have been so overwhelming for him, the pope made a simple request to his listeners: “Please pray for me!” It was a beautiful way to begin his papal ministry, to ask for the prayers of all those he was now entrusted to serve and pray for.

I ask for your prayers as I assume the pastoral care of souls at Blessed Sacrament. Your prayers and encouragement will mean so much to me as I take on new responsibilities. And, of course, I will be praying for you every day. Together, we will work for “the glory of God and the well being of Christ’s holy Church.”

I look forward to learning all about the parish and to meet my new parish family.

God bless you, 
Fr. Gary Studniewski
