My dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
As your Pastor, please be assured of my continued prayers for you, your families and all those affected by this virus. During this time we may have feelings of panic, fear, worry, and doubt. As we read in Isaiah, our Lord tells us to not fear for He is always with us and will uphold us during times of trouble.
I pray that all spend time in prayer, asking for our Lord’s healing for the sick, protection for those caring for the ill, and for His comforting hands on those who are fearful. A livestream of our Mass will be available oour parish Facebook:
https://www.facebook.com/HolyFamilyNBTX/  If If you do not have a Facebook account you can go to our parish website and just click the Facebook icon on the upper right-hand corner of the home page and you can see it there. Beginning March 30^th I will open the doors from 7am-Noon so if you need to stop by and pray for a few minutes. I encourage you and your family to continue to pray at home. Continue to pray other devotions including the Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy at appropriate times. 
Holy Family Parish will continue during these times. But in order to continue our work, we need your support. I ask you to pray for our Parish, our Diocese and our Country. I also ask for your continued financial support. Without your gifts, our parish will struggle to continue to take care of our most basic functions. I know these times are challenging, but I humbly ask for your continued financial support so that we may continue our vital functions. Gifts can be made by dropping off your offering at the parish office, using the on-line giving on our parish website hfnb.org or mailing a check to the parish.
Thank you for your continued support. Your generosity is a blessing to our parish family. May God keep you safe, continue to bless you and your families, and keep us all in His loving care.
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, pray for us.
Fr. Francois

Missionaries of Holy Family announced today that Father Arthur Ockwood died this morning, Friday, March 27.
This is the second beloved MSF priest to die this month as Father Jim Wuerth died on March 7.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. Amen. May their souls, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Jesus, Son of God and Son of Mary, bless our family. Graciously inspire in us the unity, peace, and mutual love that you found in your own family in the little town of Nazareth.
Mary, Mother of Jesus and our Mother, nourish our family with your faith and your love.
Keep us close to your Son, Jesus,
in all our sorrows and joys.
Joseph, Foster-father to Jesus, guardian spouse of Mary, keep our family safe from harm.
Help us in all times of discouragement and anxiety.
Holy Family of Nazareth, make our family one with you. Help us to be instruments of peace. Grant that love strengthen by grace, may prove mightier than all the weaknesses and trials through which our family sometimes pass. May we always have God at the center of our hearts and homes until we are one family, happy and at peace in our true home with you. Amen
