CHRIST IS BORN!

Dear parish family of St. Volodymyr Church,

From the bottom of my heart, I warmly greet you on the great feast of the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ. Today the Word of God became flesh and dwelt among us, bringing light to those in darkness, hope to the weary, and peace to troubled hearts.

We truly feel God’s presence in the life of our parish community. It is only by His grace that we grow spiritually, come together in prayer, and do works of mercy that fill our lives with light, love, and true joy. I sincerely thank each of you for your open hearts, your generosity, and for sharing the light of God that never fades.

May the newborn Child Jesus richly bless you and your families with all the graces you need on our earthly journey toward our heavenly home. May He grant peace to your hearts, harmony in your families, strength in times of trial, and living hope for the days ahead. We pray especially that the Lord may grant a just peace and victory to the Ukrainian people, and also bring an end to all wars and violence throughout the world, so that humanity may once again learn to live in mutual respect, justice, and love.

Thank you for your love for the Church, for supporting our parish, and for your constant prayer and help.

Christ is Born — Glorify Him!

 

United in the joy of Christmas,

Fr. Roman Bobesiuk
