As you know, our annual golf tournament, played two weeks ago, was a tremendous success! We raised over $25,000 for the building fund, but even more important, everyone had a great time participating in it. We had brilliant sunshine after 3 days of rain which goes to show that God was smiling down on us! I would like to thank our Chairman, Joe Cangi and his committee for all the hard work they put in to make this so successful. Kudos also go to Tom Bosso for his "Taco Italiano's" which were awesome, Mark Menandez for providing the sausage, Mike Wallace for all the wine and bruschetta along with many prizes he obtained, and Brian Kenny with Jersey Mike's Subs for providing lunch. It truly was a community effort and my thanks go out to all of our sponsors and players. This year I actually hit the ball well although I had an attack of the "lefts" which caused me great grief. Please ignore those people who come to Mass wearing "I beat Fr. David shirt." They just want to rub it in!
On Valentine's day this past week we celebrated Latin Nights here in the Family Life Center. What a wonderful evening of music! We had great food and they danced until dawn! (Well not quite but you get the drift.) I would like to thank Julio Dones and his committee for putting on such a first class event. We even had a famous person from Puerto Rico grace our stage!
Believe it or not, Lent is approaching very soon on March 5th! As you know, we are undergoing a year of prayer following Matthew Kelly's book in which I hope all of you read. What a great time to reinforce our prayer life! Just saying!
Well, that is all for now. May the Lord continue to bless you with His Love!
Peace,
Fr. David
