WEEKLY REFLECTION
Take Courage!
08-09-2026 | Fr. Fred AdamsonDear Parishioners,
Today's readings invite us to place our trust in God, who remains present even in the storms of life. Anxiety, fear and doubt are experiences we all know. At one time or another, each of us has faced moments when the waves seemed too high, the wind too strong and the future uncertain. Yet it is often in those very moments that the Lord comes closest to us.
