Dear San Pablo Family,

May the peace of the Lord be with you!

Today, along with the Catholic Church worldwide, we begin Holy Week. During these days of grace, we are called to journey with Our Lord Jesus Christ as we meditate on the purpose of His coming into the world and His ministry for humanity. Jesus came to the world in obedience to the will of the Father, offering His life on the cross of Calvary to bring us reconciliation and eternal salvation. Let us walk with Jesus, who invites us to carry our daily crosses and rise to new life with Him.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Sisters Alexia and Ana, who, along with Brother Gilberto, accompanied us this week by leading the Lenten Mission for the spiritual benefit of our parishioners and visitors. They are all very young, but their enthusiasm for living their faith and their dedication to serving others is evident and has inspired us. I extend a special thanks to their founding Mother, Adela Galindo, for sharing with our parish the gifts and charisms that God has granted this religious community. May God bless them with abundant vocations.

Finally, I want to thank our part-time parishioners who are returning to their homes in the north of the country. Their presence enriches us each year, and while their temporary departure brings us sadness, we are comforted by the knowledge that we will welcome them back at the end of fall and the beginning of winter. May God guide you on your journey home, and please continue to pray for your spiritual family at San Pablo. We also appreciate your financial support during the summer months, allowing us to continue serving the many people who visit us throughout the year.

Wishing you a blessed Holy Week.

In Christ,
Father Oscar Perez Dudamel

2025 Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land

Our Catholic faith has deep roots in the Holy Land. It is where Jesus began his ministry, sharing the Good News with all He encountered. On Holy Thursday, Jesus broke bread with His disciples, and with that, Jesus gave us the gift of the Eucharist. This was also the beginning of the priesthood. Good Friday is critical to our salvation. Jesus died for our sins, and through His resurrection on Easter Sunday, we are given the chance at eternal life with Him. The birth of Catholicism led to our faith spreading throughout the world. Our creed, “one, holy, Catholic, and Apostolic,” unites us with Catholics across the world. We should support all members of our faith, and our brothers and sisters in the Holy Land need your help.

Each year, the Holy Father asks all Catholic parishes to take up the Good Friday Collection to keep a Christian presence in the Holy Land. This collection on April 18, 2025, supports the Franciscan ministry work offered to the sacred shrines and parishes in the Holy Land. It also provides for the formation and education in communities and schools, and it supports the basic needs of our brothers and sisters during their current hardships.

During the difficult times following the tragic events on October 7, 2023, hope is much needed by the Christians of the Holy Land. The Christian community in the Holy Land has relied greatly on the pilgrimage industry, which has struggled due to the pandemic, and now war. Our brothers and sisters require support for medical needs, food, and school tuition.

We hope for awareness and charitable generosity for this year’s Good Friday Collection. Your participation allows for basic needs to be met for the people in the Holy Land and enables Christians and the Church to stay in the Holy Land, where the Church was founded. This collection will occur at Good Friday services across the world. Please consider giving to this important cause.

In this year’s Lenten Season, we humbly ask for your prayers for the Holy Father’s Collection. Our brothers and sisters in the Holy Land are counting on your support and encouragement.

To give to the collection, please give at your local Good Friday service, or donate at myfranciscan.org/donation-page-pontifical-good-friday-collection/
