Come with joy into the presence of the Lord. Psalm 100:2-3
A NOTE FROM FATHER ROBERTO QUANT
Dear Parents:
A few weeks ago Mrs. Camacho gave me a tour of our school and I met our students and members of our faculty and staff. I was truly impressed with them and with everything I experienced. I was also welcomed with great enthusiasm.
It is also with the same great enthusiasm that I come to Sacred Heart Church and School as your new pastor beginning June 15, 2010. Except for my years in college, I was blessed to attend Catholic schools. I received a great education. I believe it is my turn now to give and to share, to work and to minister, and to pray so that our children too receive the best we offer with “faith, hope, and love.” With the Holy Spirit and the help of Mrs. Camacho, faculty, and staff, I promise to serve your children.
I hope to meet you in person soon. May you and your children have a great summer with plenty of fun and rest. In the meantime, I keep you in my prayers and ask you to remember me in yours. May the love that comes from the Sacred Heart of Jesus radiate in your own hearts making them sacred as His. With Mary and in Christ, Fr. Roberto
UNA NOTA DE PADRE ROBERTO QUANT
Estimados Padres:
Unas semanas atras, la Señora Camacho me dio un recorrido de la escuela y conocí a nuestros estudiantes, maestros y personal en general. Estoy sumamente impresionado en ellos y en todo lo que experimenté. Fuí recibido con una gran alegría.
Con esa misma gran alegría vengo a la Iglesia y Escuela del Sagrado Corazón como su nuevo párroco el 15 de Junio del 2010. Excepto en la universidad, he tenido la gran bendición de estudiar en escuelas Católicas. He recibido una buena educación. Creo que ahora es mi turno para dar, compartir y trabajar en oración para que nuestros niños también reciban lo mejor que tenemos con “fe, esperanza, y amor.” Con el Espíritu Santo y la ayuda de la señora Camacho y maestros, le prometo servir a sus hijos.
Espero pronto conocerlos personalmente. Que ustedes y sus hijos tengan un buen verano con bastante diversión y descanso. Mientras tanto, los trendré en mis oraciones y les pido que me recuerden en las suyas. Que el amor que viene del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús refleje en sus corazones haciéndolos santo como el de él.
Con la Virgen de Guadalupe y en Cristo, Padre Roberto.
