Dear Friends,

As you may have already heard, my four-year term at Incarnation ends this month on June 30, and on July 1, 2022, I will begin my new assignment as the Associate Pastor at St. Paschal Baylon in Thousand Oaks.

Thank you so much for your presence in my life as a priest at Incarnation, through your prayers, conversations, love, and support. Thank you especially to Fr. Rodel, Fr. Parker, Msgr. Hefner, Dcn. Dominic, Dcn. Morgan, Dr. Boysen, our staffs and volunteers at our church and our school, our parishioners, our students and their parents, and our teachers and catechists.

It has been such an honor to celebrate the Sacraments with you and to get to know all of you. I have really enjoyed my time here at Incarnation Church and Incarnation School. You have helped me become a better priest and for that I am very grateful.

I look forward to visiting Incarnation in the future when it is possible. Know that I will keep all of you in my prayers always, and I wish you all the best, in the love of Jesus, Our Incarnate Savior, and His Mother Mary, Our Loving Mother.

Many blessings,
Father John T. O'Brien
