Cordially inviting each one of you to join us for this wonderful and amazing tradition.

Dear Filipino families and supporters of the mission:
As we gather together with our families to celebrate Thanksgiving Day, let us also take this moment to reflect on the blessings of Archdiocesan Filipino Ministry in the Archdiocese of Baltimore has received through the unwavering support of each one of you, our leaders, our cluster representatives, and working teams. Your faith-filled generosity and commitment have been instrumental in helping our Filipino ministry grow as a vibrant ministry rooted in Jesus’ mission. Every prayer, volunteer hour, and contribution of talent and treasure has strengthened our shared journey towards partnership in mission, making the light of Christ shine brighter in our Filipino families and beyond.
We’ve taken significant strides in bringing our plans to life, from ministries reaching out to the unengaged to our mission-driven events that nurture the faith of Filipino families and friends and strengthen our mission and leaders alike. Your efforts reflect our unity in Christ’s mission and dedication to reviving our mission in the Filipino ministry. This mission thrives because you are willing to partner in the works of our church, financially support our mission, and work together in the ministries toward a vision of a vibrant Catholic Filipino Community of growing disciples filled with a solid and compassionate heart for the Lord and His people.
Thank you very much for being a vital part of the Archdiocesan Filipino Council’s journey and ministry. May God bless each of you abundantly, and may your Thanksgiving be filled with joy, peace, and the warmth of loved ones.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Fr. Pete D. Literal, Chaplain

Archbishop Lori has written a very important pastoral letter on evangelization-based parish planning which will be used by every parish in the Archdiocese of Baltimore this year to begin planning where and how the Catholic Church will serve the people of our archdiocese in the future. The letter is entitled: A Light Brightly Visible-Lighting the Path to Missionary Discipleship.
A Pastoral Letter on Evangelization
Like many parishioners throughout the Archdiocese of Baltimore, we, Filipino parishioners, we need to participate, look at, and study the changing demographics of our parish community to determine how and where the Church can best serve.
There is a parish based planning process, which will not be a “top down” effort but will include decisions made at the parish level and I need you, Filipino Catholics to participate.
The first step in this process is to read the Archbishop’s pastoral letter so that we can all have a sense of what this planning process is about. The letter and a video of the Archbishop explaining the “spirit” of this planning process, which is being called Be Missionary Disciples, can be found by going to bemissionarydisciples.org website
Please do take a few minutes to read the pastoral letter and take the survey.
Fr. Pete
