A Letter from our Pastor: Easter

Dear St. William Parishioners, 

Christ is Risen! Alleluia! 

With great joy, I write to you as we celebrate the glorious feast of Easter, the heart of our Christian faith. On this holy day, we proclaim with renewed hope that Jesus Christ has conquered sin and death, opening for us the path to new life. 

The Resurrection is not simply an event of the past, but a living reality that continues to transform our lives today. In a world often marked by uncertainty, suffering, and division, the empty tomb stands as a powerful reminder that darkness never has the final word. God’s love is stronger. Life triumphs over death. Hope endures. 

This Easter, I invite each of you to encounter the Risen Lord in a deeper way. Let us seek Him in prayer, in the celebration of the Eucharist, and in acts of charity toward one another. As a parish family, we are called to be witnesses of the Resurrection—bringing light to those in darkness, comfort to those who suffer, and peace to those who are troubled. 

May this sacred season renew your faith, strengthen your hope, and deepen your love. Let us go forth with joyful hearts, proclaiming not only with our words but with our lives: Christ is truly risen! 

As we celebrate this Easter Season, may the peace of the Risen Christ fill your hearts and homes this Easter season. 

Ad Jesum per Mariam, 

Fr. Francisco Rodriguez III, 
Pastor
