Simbang Gabi 2025

[Mercy Lazo]

Good evening, everyone,

I meant to send an email earlier this year and never got around to doing it. Visiting with Jen Montoya last Sunday, I just realized it’s almost October so here goes:

I’m ‘stepping away’ from Simbang Gabi ‘co-lead’ this year. As most of you know, I’m back in school and this quarter I’ve made the decision to ‘clear my full plate’ so as to make room for the ‘school menu’.

Then there’s the development of my sister, Lily, with her new diagnosis of stage 4 colorectal cancer. Although she resides in the Philippines and is getting great care in that part of the world, I”m keeping the option of traveling there a possibility.

Always grateful for your support of our Simbang Gabi ministry and our parish family. All the best in this Autumn season!


Blessings,

💝 Mercy

Aw Mercy, it sounds like you made a wise decision for yourself and your family. Love and prayers to you and all of this group.

Hello, Mercy, 

Thank you for sharing...family first!

We will miss you but definitely will be praying for guidance and healing...

It's been a while but we should be bumping into you every now and then. 

Blessings!
