This past Sunday, our parish family gathered with gratitude and joy to celebrate Father’s Day during the XII Sunday in Ordinary Time.

During the Holy Mass, we offered our prayers for all fathers—living and deceased—entrusting them to the loving care of God our Father.

After the homily, all fathers present received a special blessing, asking the Lord to strengthen them in their vocation of love, sacrifice, and leadership. As a small token of appreciation, each father received a keychain with the Medal of Saint Benedict, a reminder of God’s protection and the spiritual strength that comes from faith.

We ask for the intercession of Saint Joseph, that he guides all fathers to be true protectors and spiritual leaders within their families.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, bless all fathers with wisdom, patience, and a heart like Yours. Amen
