Parish Priest's Message:

Dear Parishioners,

Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

It is with great joy and gratitude that I begin my ministry as the Parish Priest of St. Joseph's Church, Jeppu. I thank God for this opportunity to serve this faith-filled community and to journey with you in faith, hope, and love.

I express my sincere gratitude to our Bishop for entrusting me with this responsibility. I also extend my heartfelt thanks to the parishioners, parish council members, religious, and all the faithful for the warm welcome you have extended to me.

At this juncture, I would like to sincerely thank Rev. Fr. Maxim for his dedicated and faithful service to our parish over the past five years. His ministry was marked by love, compassion, and genuine care for all people. He readily reached out to people from every walk of life, making everyone feel welcomed, valued, and at home in the parish community. His special concern for the sick and the elderly, whom he regularly visited and supported, was deeply appreciated by all. We remain grateful for his spiritual guidance, leadership, and commitment to the growth and well-being of our parish. May God bless him abundantly in his future ministry.

St. Joseph, our patron, is a model of humility, obedience, and faithful service. May his example inspire us to grow closer to Christ and to work together in building a vibrant parish community rooted in prayer, unity, and charity.

I look forward to meeting each one of you, visiting your families, and sharing in the joys and challenges of your lives. Let us continue to support one another and make our parish a place where everyone experiences God's love, mercy, and compassion.

As I begin this new mission among you, I humbly request your prayers and support. May God bless all our families, and may St. Joseph intercede for us always.

With prayers and blessings,

Rev. Fr Antony Lasrado

Parish Priest

St. Joseph Church, Jeppu
