25º DOMINGO COMUM-
Year • Ano ADear Friends of Our Lady of the Assumption
We are grateful to God that we are ready to announce that
Andrea Sousa-Johnson will be our part-time youth
minister. Andrea has been a member of this parish since
the day of her baptism and has participated intensely in the
life of the community, including our catechism,
confirmation and LifeTeen programs. She has been a
member of the core team, NET ministries and Young Adult
Teams of Our Lady. Andrea has been involved in cultural
events and festivals. Even though young, she brings
impressive skills, experience, love and faith to this 15-hour
a week ministry. She will receive the support of the teens,
the core team, the staff and of the entire parish as she
begins her ministry. Let us all pray for the success of her
mission.
We are blessed to thank the other talented and competent
young adults who applied for the job. They have so much
to offer with their abilities, leadership skills and love of the
Lord and of his Church. From the heart, we thank them for
coming forth to be interviewed, and we encourage them to
continue to work with us. They are a tribute to the
LifeTeen program and other ministries in our parish.
Finally, a word of thanks to Allison Parman, who served us
with distinction for seven years. We have many happy
memories of great Life Nights, retreats and other events.
She will continue to serve as the Confirmation Program
Coordinator, which has attracted many young teens over
these last seven years. She has given us a good chunk of
her young adult years. We appreciate her skills as an
organizer, a teacher of deep faith, keen intelligence and a
lot of common sense. For all that, we are grateful.

Caros Amigos de Nossa Senhora da Assunção
É com muita gratidão para com Deus que informamos
que a Andrea Sousa-Johnson será a coordenadora a
tempo parcial do programa LifeTeen. A Andrea é
membro da nossa paróquia desde o dia do seu baptismo, e
ao longo da sua vida participou intensamente na vida da
comunidade, incluindo a catequese infantil, programa da
confirmação, grupo de jovens, equipa coordenadora do
grupo de jovens, NET ministries e Equipas de Nossa
Senhora para jovens. Também fez parte de grupos
culturais e das nossas festas. Embora jovem, ela
evidencia muita capacidade, experiência, amor à causa do
evangelho e profunda fé. De certo que tera o apoio dos
jovens, da equipa da pastoral juvenil, da equipa paroquial
e de toda a comunidade nesta posição de 15 horas por
semana. Rezemos todos para que ela tenha grande êxito
na missão que o Senhor lhe incumbiu.
É com sentido de grande apreço que agradeço e saudo os
outros jovens adultos que aplicaram para esta posição.
Eles também tem muito a dar com as suas capacidades e
dons, seu entusiasmo, abilidades para a liderança e seu
amor a Cristo e à Igreja. Do coração, agradecemos terem
aceite ser entrevistados e encorajamo-los a continuarem a
servir connosco. Eles honram a nossa pastoral juvenil.
Finalmente, uma palavra de gratidão à Allison Parman
que serviu a paróquia nesta mesma posição durante sete
anos. Temos muitas e felizes recordações de
maravilhosas reuniões (Life Nights), retiros e outras
atividades. Ela continuará a coordenar o programa da
confirmação que tem atraído muitos adolescentes ao
longo deste anos. Ela deu-nos um bom pedaço da sua
vida de jovem adulto. Apreciamos os seus talentos como
organizadora, catequista de fé profunda, a sua
fina inteligência e senso comum. Por tudo, a nossa
gratidão.
