Welcome to the October Assembly of the Sons of the Holy Family in Maryland

Sons of the Holy Family, Jesus, Mary and Joseph
"A Nazareth in each home"

Dear ............................................
　
You have been invited to take part in the October Assembly of the Sons of the Holy Family, to be held from Tuesday 11 to Thursday 13, at the Holy Family Seminary, in Maryland.

As an active collaborator in the evangelization and ministries that the Sons of the Holy Family carry out at Holy Cross Parish & School / Holy Family Parish & Santuario de Chimayo, your participation is important and inspiring for us. We count on you to be faithful and creative in answering God’s call to make a Nazareth in each home and a family of families through the parishes, school, shrine and missions where we all serve. As a matter of fact, we cannot be faithful to our spirituality and mission without you.

Your commitment along with your input, feedback, ideas, challenges, goals, are of extreme importance for the new evangelization in which we take part. For that, we are excited about having you with us. Together we will grow in understanding our spirituality and mission, always keeping in mind the families we serve.

Welcome to the October Assembly 2011. I am available to answer any question or hear any comment you may have. God and the Holy Family of Nazareth bless you and your family.

Fr. Julio Gonzalez, S.F.
Pastoral Delegate of the Sons of the Holy Family in the USA.
