A NOTE FROM THE FR AGUSTIN

Fifteen years ago, on May 22, 2004 I was ordained a priest and I had the privilege to celebrate my First English Mass at Saint Thomas Parish in Wilmington on May 23. Later I celebrated my First Mass in Spanish at the Cathedral of the Our Lady of the Light in Leon, with my Mother and my family.

I am very thankful especially to Fr. Earley, Fr. Tully and the wonderful community of the Parish of the Transfiguration for their support during these 15 years and especially now that I am assigned to the parish, thanks to Fr. Earley’s connections… I consider myself very fortunate being here in Wilmington.

As you read this note, I will be at home with my family celebrating 15 years serving the Church in America, praying for you and your intentions, please pray for me.

Regards from Holy Land = Mexico.

Fr. Agustin

A NOTE FROM THE PASTOR

After the last Mass on Sunday, Fr. Agustin is heading home to Mexico to visit his family. He will return on

Fr. Agustin is home in Mexico to visit his family. He will return to work on Thursday, June 6, 2019. On Thursday, June 6, the Thursday and Friday morning Mass will resume. I hope he is having warm, sunny weather and not rain like here.

The response to Tom Griffin’s starting a book club has been great. Since the response was so great, he is starting a second group who will read and discuss the same book. Check the bulletin for more details about the second group. The book, “The Gift of Years, Growing Old Gracefully” is an excellent book. I read it twice. I would encourage you to join or at least read the book.

Here is an update for the Catholic Appeal. Our goal for the Parish of the Transfiguration is $56,000.00. Between those who responded to the Cardinal’s letter or mailed in a check or gave online or on Commitment Sunday, we have $59,143.00 in gifts and pledges. If all the pledges are paid off, we will have met our assessment. Again, thanks to all the families who made a gift or pledge to the 2019 Catholic Appeal. If you would like to make a pledge to the Catholic Appeal, it is not too late. Here’s a summary:

Well, that is it for now. Until next time take care.

Fr. Earley
