My Son Served with Me for Benediction

I was asked to do Benediction on Friday evening.  

My 8 year-old son helped me.  

Thank you, God.  Praised be Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist!

RIP Deacon Pete Lobo

Deacon Pete Lobo's Funeral Liturgy/Mass starts at 11am at St. Catherine's Parish in Vallejo on Tuesday, Sept. 29. He was 90 years old, married to Agnes (pictured here) for almost 70 years, and ordained in 1988. He was a great-grandfather. He died on Sept 9, 2026.

He prepared me and Tove Ann for our marriage in 2003, taught the baptism prep classes for my first 3 kids, and mentored me for ministry.

Please say a prayer for the repose of his soul and the consolation of his family.

We love you, Deacon Pete.
