Dearest Friends,

Thank you all so very much for your kind words and congratulations on the news of my new assignment to the Mission Basilica San Buenaventura. However, I want to share with you that after some prayer and discernment I have asked to take a sabbatical for medical purposes and will not transition as pastor to the Mission. I will take this time to rest and recover especially after such a major surgery and the toll it has taken on me. I truly thank all of you, our parishioners, our priests, and our staff who helped the work of the parish continue during that time and who helped me during that immediate period of recovery and return to parish work. May God continue to bless you as you welcome your new Parish Administrator, Fr. Parker Sandoval. Father is looking forward to becoming your new shepherd and spiritual guide. He will be a wonderful pastor and I am confident that you will offer the same love and support that you have always given to us priests here at St. Mary Magdalen.

Me ke aloha pumehana ia ‘okou (with warmest affection to you all),
Fr. Preston

Queridísimos Amigos:

Les agradezco a todos de todo corazón sus amables palabras y sus felicitaciones con motivo de la noticia de mi nuevo nombramiento en la Misión Basílica San Buenaventura. Sin embargo, deseo compartir con ustedes que, tras un tiempo de oración y discernimiento, he solicitado tomar un año sabático por motivos de salud. Dedicaré este tiempo a descansar y recuperarme, especialmente después de haber pasado por una cirugía mayor y del desgaste físico que esta ha supuesto para mí. Agradezco sinceramente a todos ustedes —nuestros feligreses, nuestros sacerdotes y nuestro personal— por haber hecho posible que la labor parroquial continuara durante ese periodo, así como por haberme brindado su ayuda durante la etapa inmediata de recuperación y mi reincorporación al trabajo en la parroquia. Que Dios continúe bendiciéndolos al dar la bienvenida a su nuevo Administrador Parroquial, el Padre Parker Sandoval. El Padre espera con gran ilusión convertirse en su nuevo pastor y guía espiritual. Será un pastor maravilloso, y confío plenamente en que le brindarán el mismo amor y apoyo que siempre nos han ofrecido a nosotros, los sacerdotes, aquí en Santa María Magdalena.

Me ke aloha pumehana ia ‘okou (con el más cálido afecto para todos ustedes),
P. Preston

Congratulations to Bro. Pepe on receiving the Order of Acolyte at St. John’s Seminary. One step closer to his ordination as Deacon and eventually to the Priesthood of Jesus Christ. Please continue to pray for him, his classmates, and all our seminarians as they discern their call to serve God’s Church.

¡Felicidades al Hermano Pepe por recibir la Orden de Acólito en el Seminario San Juan! Un paso más cerca de su ordenación como Diácono y, finalmente, del Sacerdocio de Jesucristo. Por favor, continúen rezando por él, por sus compañeros de clase y por todos nuestros seminaristas, mientras disciernen su llamado a servir a la Iglesia de Dios.
