St. Sebastian Church

St. Stanislaus was born in Szczepanów, Poland, in 1030. He was ordained a priest and later became the bishop of Kraków. He was known for his piety, humility, and dedication to serving the Church. St. Stanislaus was an outspoken critic of the King Bolesław II, who committed various acts of injustice and immorality. When the king refused to repent, the bishop excommunicated him. The feast day of St. Stanislaus is celebrated on April 11th. It is a significant day in Poland and is observed with processions, prayers, and special Masses. On this day, Catholics honor the memory of St. Stanislaus and seek his intercession for courage, righteousness, and guidance in their own lives. Read more

The New Year 2024 was ushered in with all new hopes and aspirations and not forgetting new resolutions from the young and old. Our expectations for a happy and peaceful life were dented from the very first day itself with a series of tragic and mysterious happenings all around us, making us wonder, if it is like back to square one. The men in uniform, arresting a Christian Pastor, on frivolous charges of indulging in convertions, unbelievable news of a dead and buried man walking home after a couple of months, the chilling news of a mother killing her four year old son in an apartment and packing the body in a suitcase, a husband drowning his wife at a beach, several fatal road accidents with young lives being snuffed out, well the list goes on and on and we are only in the first month of the year. We all long for peace and happiness but the events as above keep unfolding with no respite. We also know that we can’t change the ocean or the weather, no matter how hard you try, so it is best to learn how to sail in all conditions, having trust in God for an answer to all our worries and cares. With all the uncertainties, when you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive, to breathe, to think, to enjoy and to love. Remember, our life is God’s gift to us and what we do with it is our gift to God. Read more
