Brothers and sisters, because of COVID, in-lieu of our annual Bazaar for Most Holy Trinity Catholic Church, Angleton, TX, we are asking for the generosity of the people of God to raise funds for our parish by donating at least 300 dollars. The thinking is if we can get at least 300 people to give just $300 we could raise the same amount of income we normally receive from our annual Bazaar. If any of you are interested in giving, we are giving every donor who gives at least $300 a Limited Edition 11"x17" Art Print of the Icon Mural that I have been praying over and painting during this pandemic. This campaign is open to anyone willing to give! Please share this with your friends!

A little update from Fr. Khoi regarding opening up the church and working towards having public Masses in the future...

Greetings brothers and sisters, it’s been a strange two weeks. I miss seeing everyone, and I’m sure you miss celebrating the Eucharist with our wonderful parish family. In these trying times, as we find ourselves with less and less to do, after all our chores and work around the house that needed to get done is done, it will be trying for many of us.

During this confusing time, it is necessary to ask the Holy Spirit for the gift of prudence and hope. Although, we have faith and hope in Christ Jesus, we need to protect the health and lives of the vulnerable around us. Although we ourselves may not experience life threatening symptoms, we can easily pass it to our loved ones who are more vulnerable.

Greetings brother and sisters, Christ is born a little child in Bethlehem some 2,000 years ago, and still the buzz about his birth is still found throughout the whole world. Growing up as a child, my family and I would always attend midnight Mass to celebrate Christmas. And it was only after midnight Mass, that we were allowed to open our gifts. There is something about celebrating our Lord Jesus Christ’s birth at one of the darkest and quietest hour. In the pitch black of night, we celebrate the light of Christ born to us to cast away the sin and darkness in our life and in our world.

Greetings brothers and sisters, Gaudete in Domino semper: iterum dico, gaudete. “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I say, rejoice.” This weekend we find ourselves halfway through Advent and we rejoice because the time for the Lord to come is quickly coming upon us! 

Greetings brothers and sisters, as we move forward with Advent, we look forward to Christmas with great hope. Hope is the virtue of trusting in the promises of God and his work in the world. Next week, at all the Sunday Masses, there will also be another opportunity to hope. As I mentioned in previous announcements and notebook entries, we will have a parish wide comprehensive survey to discern and plan for the future of Most Holy Trinity. This is a great opportunity for us to listen to each other and to share our thoughts in a constructive and helpful way.

Greetings brothers and sisters, as we move towards Thanksgiving break, there is truly much to be thankful for! After the financial report a few weeks earlier, a generous anonymous donor approached us afterwards and offered to pay off the rest of the building loan note for the Church! This generosity truly left me speechless. May God bless us always and guide us in his providence.

Greetings brothers and sisters, in these past few days and in the days to come, there are lots of liturgical workshops for various roles in the Mass. My desire is that we can come together to learn and clarify what it is that we do in the liturgy as well as why we do what we do. Our liturgical tradition goes back even to the Jewish temple in Jesus’ time, and much of what we do is imbued with meaning, symbolism and wisdom.

Greetings brothers and sisters! I hope all is well with you. The last weekend was full of celebrations with All Saints, All Souls and Sunday. In the month of November, it has always been traditionally a month to remember the dead and to pray for them. Let us continue to keep our loved ones in our prayers this month.

Greetings brothers and sisters, this weekend is Ministry Fair weekend (After the 5pm, 8am and 10am Masses). I’ve heard that it hasn’t been done in years, so I figured it’s time to start it up again. I always love getting to meet all those who are so involved in the Church and give of their time to share the Gospel with others. We are all called to be the Light of the World and Salt of the Earth for others, and through various ministries we can do that. 

Greetings brothers and sisters, what a wonderful Bazaar we had two weekends ago! Thank you to the Bazaar Committee, The Knights of Columbus for the Hall, and all of the ministries and volunteers who helped to put on the various activities. None of it could be possible without everyone lending a hand before, during and after. Thank you!

Greetings brothers and sisters, this weekend is Most Holy Trinity’s Bazaar weekend! I’m excited and looking forward to it. Although sometimes it seems like the Bazaar is a wonderful way to support our parish, I believe it is an even more wonderful way for all of us to come together as one community and just celebrate! It takes so many people to make the Bazaar a wonderful experience that everyone can enjoy. Not only that, but people from all sides of our community come together to work with each other. There is a synergy that happens when we celebrate! But what are we celebrating? Why are we celebrating?

Greetings brothers and sisters, last weekend, both the youth in Confirmation I and the Catechists were on retreat. Retreats can be such a powerful encounter with the Lord, and often the Holy Spirit can do great work in the time if we’re open to it. Our Youth Ministry Adore Missionaries, Catechists and staff put in a lot of blood, sweat and tears to help the young Church to have authentic encounters with Jesus, to grow in knowledge of Jesus and to send them out to live as missionary disciples.

Greetings brothers and sisters, how can it be September already!? It seems like just yesterday, it was July and I was just starting at Most Holy Trinity. The parish is beginning to buzz with activity now that Summer is coming to an end. I just wanted to give you a quick rundown of all the things that will be happening in the following months.

One of my favorite aspects of Catholicism is just how incarnational we are. The God we worship, is not only “up there” and we somehow need to escape the “down here” to get to him. Instead, we believe in a God who condescended, who came down, and became fully human. Thus God desires to not only engage us spiritually, but also bodily, through his incarnation. Thus in every Mass, there is this engagement of not only our spirits but our bodies as well: the music, the stained glass, the incense, the bells, the bows and kneeling, even the reception of the Eucharist on the tongue or hand.

Greetings all! ​​​​​​​It is so good to be home! What a blessed retreat I had, and what an even more blessed celebration at my Mass of Installation last Saturday! Thank you to everyone who made the time to come out and celebrate, and thank you to all those who helped with the reception afterwards. I joked with the volunteers that night that we should have some kind of celebration/potluck dinner every month, to which they almost fainted.

Greetings brothers and sisters, currently, I am out in the middle of the high desert of New Mexico at the Benedictine Monastery of Christ in the Desert starting my retreat. You are in my prayers. Before I left, I had some conversations with our staff about the safety of our parking lots, mainly the beautiful oak tree branches that are starting to hang low and the massive after school pick-up of students from the elementary now that school is back in session.
