It is with great joy that I welcome you to our parish. Much has changed in our first 164 years. Our forebears who founded St. Aloysius would find it hard to comprehend our modes of dress, transportation and communication. No doubt they would struggle with the pace and noise of life today. As we face our future, let us strive to remain faithful to the legacy left to us by those who have come before us, and commit ourselves to handing that faith-filled inheritance to our children and to generations to come.
