In January, I began the Fireside Chats, which met in parishioners’ homes where I was able to meet people in their respective neighborhoods. The quarantine we are now in has changed the momentum, but it does not have to change one of the hallmarks of Holy Infant -- the closeness of our community. To deepen this spirit, I want to continue to invite parishioners to meet in their neighborhoods, but do it as an online meeting through Zoom.
Many of you have probably already had such meetings and for those who have not, it is easy. Each Monday, I will send a group of parishioners the invitation for the next Sunday meeting at 7 p.m. The invitation will contain the online link that will allow you to join the meeting. My hope is that using technology we can still foster trust and solidarity between each other, provide a place for us to connect in our neighborhoods and share ways for all of us to better proclaim and live the Good News.
