Beloved friends in Christ,
It is with sadness that I share the news of the death of Esteban Velez, a member of our parish. Esteban is mourned by his mother, Andrea, his father Esteban, and his sister, Alexandrea.
Esteban's death was unexpected and tragic, and I bid your prayers for the repose of his soul, and the healing presence of Christ through the Holy Spirit to remain with his family in this incredibly difficult time. His obituary can be found here.
