Happy New Year!
Resolutions? I hope you made some—and haven’t already given up on them! May your resolutions be strong enough to become new habits.
When it comes to goals, remember: they shouldn’t be so unrealistic that you can’t accomplish them. The devil wants us to fall into discouragement over our failures and setbacks; the Lord wants us to encourage one another!
Consider these words from 1 essalonians 5:9–11:
“For God did not destine us for wrath, but to gain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep we may live together with him. Therefore, encourage one another and build one another up, as indeed you do.”
Also—adults who still need to be conrmed—this is your best chance!
I hate to admit it, but sometimes folks feel like the barrier to receiving the sacraments is impossibly high. (See the above Scripture for a little encouragement! 😉
So, if you’re looking for the shortest path to the Sacrament of Confirmation, this is your lucky day! We’re offering a short class taught by our “Apprentice in Training to Be a Deacon.”
Yes, I made up that title.
Sometimes I also call him “The Very Mister Mike Evans”… but that probably just confuses you more TL;DR: If you’re an adult who needs to be conrmed, check the bulletin for the announcement about the class beginning January 15th.
Happy New Year, blessed Feast of the Epiphany, and welcome to 2026, with a healthy dose of Fr. Mosimann levity and seriousness!
pax et bonum (Peace and All Goodness),
Father John Mosimann
