Rev. Fr. Christopher Bransfield is our new parish pastor, as of July 1, 2024. His official Installation Mass was by DSJ Bishop Oscar Cantu, on October 12th, at our Saturday 5pm Vigil Mass. Visiting priests included Master of Ceremonies Fr. Jeff Fernandez, Fr. James Okafor,  Pastor at St. Francis Cabrini, Fr. Gerard Okafor and Fr. Gener Geronimo.  The Rite of Installation began after the Gospel reading. Fr. James read the letter of appointment and Fr. Chris, as Pastor-elect stood before the bishop. Bishop Cantu addressed our new Pastor, Fr. Chris, with a Profession of Faith and Oath. Fr. Chris was then invited by Bishop Cantu to take his place at the presider’s chair.

We thank our Parish Staff, members of Finance Council, Advisory Committee and Parish Leaders, Liturgical Ministers and parishioners who participated in this special Mass, and who in the Installation Rite, all promise to pray for Fr. Chris  and sincerely welcome him to this community.
