Diocesan Pastoral Plan Update
Dear Parishioners:
We continue to live out the vision of our Diocesan Pastoral Plan, focusing on our strategic priorities: Worship, Outreach,
Formation, Youth and Young Adults, Family Ministry, and Structural Renewal.
Worship: We remain committed to deepening our love for the Eucharist. Each Thursday, we have Eucharistic Adoration after the 8:15 a.m. Mass until 12:00 noon. Our Adoration Chapel is also open during weekday office hours for anyone who wishes to spend quiet time in prayer before the Lord. Last September, we completed a parish-wide formation series, “Loving the Mass, Loving Jesus: A Four-Weekend Journey Through the Parts of the Mass,” helping us grow in our understanding of the Holy Eucharist and in recognizing Christ’s transforming presence in our lives.
Outreach: As we enter the holiday season, there are many opportunities to share your blessings with others, especially those in need within our parish and beyond. Please check our Giving Tree and Gift Card Donation Box in the church to see how you can help. We also continue our ongoing ministries such as the St.Vincent de Paul outreach, the Tijuana Mission Trip, monthly Masses in neighboring nursing facilities, and our grief support group. In addition, we will soon begin a new outreach to our seniors, extending care and presence to our elders in the community.
Formation: Faith formation remains central to our mission. We continue to offer weekly Scripture Studies and faith sharing
groups for both men and women. In our Catechetical Ministry (CM) family, we have also started a weekly catechism session with CM parents—a wonderful opportunity for parents to renew their faith while their children are in catechism class. Everyone is welcome to join!
Youth and Young Adults: Our Youth Ministry continues to meet every Sunday at 11:15 a.m., offering a space for prayer, community, and service. We are also proud to share that one of our youth coordinators, Irene George, was recently honored by the Diocese with the Saints in the City Award—a recognition of her dedicated ministry and witness of faith.
As part of our ongoing response to the Diocesan Pastoral Plan, we will soon be launching a Parish Survey to help us understand the needs and hopes of our parishioners. This will give us valuable insight into how we can better serve our community. We will also hold Parish Listening Sessions—please stay tuned for the schedule of these opportunities to share
your thoughts and dreams for our parish.
In the meantime, we invite everyone to participate in the many activities and ministries of our parish. Each gathering, prayer, and act of service is a step in nourishing your faith and growing as a disciple of Christ.
Our Parish Pastoral Committee continues to meet monthly to discern and plan programs that will help us live out our mission as a community of faith.
Serving you in Christ,
Fr. Mark

Mosaic of Blessed Mother
The mosaic in the rear of the Church depicts the Blessed Mother. The Blessed Mother served as the spiritual theme for Fr. Nicholas Farana's initial parish outreach program called "R.O.P.E." (Reach out to People Everywhere)
Mosaic of Jesus
On the other side of the Mosaic of the Blessed Mother is the matching mosaic of Jesus with children of all different nations.
Stained Glass Art Windows
As you walk into Church of the Resurrection, you are greeted by the beauty of the stained glass art windows throughout the Church, behind the sanctuary, and in the Chapel.
and whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die." John 10:25
Visiting the Chapel
Looking at the Chapel window from within the Chapel, you see to the right of the entrance a faceted glass windows featuring St. Clare, co-patron saint of the Diocese of San Jose, and St. Francis of Assisi holding the Cross.
