Our New Associate Pastor
Posted by Devman under Catholic Life
Father Alberto Borruel!
Fr. Alberto celebrated Mass at St. William’s this past Sunday and demonstrated himself to be a very faith-filled priest right away, thanks be to God.
He spoke of his delay in transitioning to St. William’s from Brenham, Texas, which was caused by him going to World Youth Day with 14 young people from his parish there. The masses of young people were chanting “Benedictus, Benedictus” and “Jesucristo, Jesucristo!” he said.
It is such a blessing and so exciting to have another holy priest assigned to our parish, especially after Fr. Juan Carlos, who served God and us so faithfully, moved on to a new parish.

Hey, we got one, too! A holy priest that is. Fr. Enrique Lopez Mescalera arrived on my birthday (he was my present, remember!), and has been making some rather wonderful changes already. His homilies are wonderful, we never skip the Creed, and people are asked to kneel while reciting “Lord, I am not worthy…” What a truly welcome change!!! He has me starting on a “top-secret” project which I hope will be successful.
Let us all give thanksgiving to God for our holy priests! And send up some pleadings for those who are not-so-much.
