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.
Father Tito Cartagenas, Jr. has been pastor of the Church of the Transfiguration since 2014 and has been assigned to St. Julie Billiart Parish in the Santa Teresa neighborhood as of July 1, 2024. The Staff, Parish Community and the Igbo Community joined together to say goodbye and thank him for all he has done. The Master of Ceremonies of the event was parishioner, Susan Glenfield, who also put together the Farewell Video of memories and well wishes from all. Much love and best wishes to Fr. Tito as he starts a new chapter in his ministry. Thank you, Fr. Tito for answering His call.
