We wish Fr. Alfonse the very best as he embarks on the next chapter of his great journey. It seems like just yesterday this dynamo embraced us as a family at St. Joseph's, and we made him one of our own.
Our parish and school community has been so blessed by his presence during his short time here. St. Monica's -- you don't know how good you're going to have it!!
For some of us, he's helped us through difficulties in our families and relationships. For others of us, he's made God's word more real with his sermons and blogs, turning us on to the miracle that is our daily life with God's grace. For others of us, he's been the kick in the pants we needed!
Please take a moment to post a reply in the comments section below with your thoughts about how Fr. Alfonse impacted you or your family, or just post your fond wishes for the next stage in his vocation. You can post anonymously or leave your name. After a week or two, we'll collect all of your responses and have them bound in a nice memory book, so he will always know how fondly we think of him and what an impact he has had on us!
P.S. -- please pass along this link to EVERYONE at St. Joseph's -- let's go "viral" and collect as many funny stories, cherished remembrances, warm thoughts, and fond wishes as we can for Father to take with him.
Warmly,
B.E.S.T. Jaguar
