Sponsored by the St. Apollinaris Parish in Napa, CA on 2018-01-25.

The Holy Family Parish Choir performed during the Mass Meditation, Amazing Grace-My Chains are Gone.
Sign of Hope is about :
The memories of the fires that raged in our counties one month ago are still fresh. The month has passed quickly and there are many good things happening but the trauma and the displacement continues. Some clean-up has begun and there is a glimmer of hopefulness in that. Contractors from a broad area are being contacted to enlist crews for the massive rebuilding effort which needs to be undertaken. Those things are happening and must happen on a macro-scale.
The Church’s efforts are more closely directed to a micro-scale. The effort is to touch individuals and individual families who are the subjects of the loss. We can easily lose sight of the fact, at the macro-scale, that all of the work, the clean-up, the rebuilding, the restoration of infrastructure has at its center very real persons who have suffered loss and who continue to suffer.
