Hello, parishioners of Holy Trinity,
Everyone is invited to attend our parish missions for Lent tomorrow and Tuesday. This two-days parish
missions will be a good opportunity to grow our love for God and make our journey with Jesus more closely in
Lent. Moreover, the Church celebrates the Jubilee Year of Hope with its theme “Pilgrims of Hope” this year
2025. In order to fully embrace this Jubilee Year along with our 100th years anniversary of the parish, Holy
Trinity welcomes Msgr. Austin Doran who will be our speaker for both days. He, a retired priest now for
Archdiocese of Los Angeles, has been a pastor in many parishes and a professor at St. John’s Seminary for
many years of teaching Catholic Spirituality. Also, he has given many talks and retreats both at parish level and
Archdiocesan level throughout his priesthood. The theme of his talk will be on hope and communion in Christ. I
am sure that Msgr. Doran will bring us a sense of hope and optimism as we celebrate this year of hope. Please
come and see at 6:30pm both, Monday, May 31, and Tuesday, April 1.
Starting May 4, we will have a new parish bulletin publisher and a new bulletin in color with more pages. It has
a new design with its cover page for our parish general information and at-first-glance directory, and the last
back page is for business advertisements. Inside of the bulletin, there will be a pastor’s weekly message corner
and Mass intention section as we currently have them now. There will be pages for our Holy Trinity School
currents and events, Religious Education section for young children and youth, Youth Ministry and
Confirmation, Archdiocesan events, etc. I hope this new bulletin brings more connectivity and communication
between Holy Trinity Parish and her parishioners. One of most anticipated benefits of having a new parish
bulletin will be, in my personal opinion, its e-mail delivery capability. If you would like to receive our parish
bulletin by e-mail every week, once you sign up for e-mail delivery, you can see it with your computer, tablet,
and smart phone. Also, anytime you can visit our parish website holytrinityla.org to view all our bulletins. I will
let you know how to subscribe this e-mail delivery service when we fully finish up a new bulletin. Despite of
this change, you will be still able to obtain a physical paper bulletin at church vestibule area. In the light of this
change of bulletin service, I need your supports by putting your business advertisement on the last page of
bulletin. There is no cost to the parish for bulletin since all its expenses will be covered by business entities or
owners of the business who put their business advertisements on our bulletin page. By putting advertisement on
our bulletin, it may promote the business growth by our other parishioners going and using your business. So, if
you are interested in, please call the rectory office.
I offer my daily prayers to all our Holy Trinity family members, and I wish your Lenten journey would go well
every day. May God bless each one of you!
Blessings,
Fr. Brian
