Welcome is much more than a word at St. Aloysius Gonzaga Church; it is a spirit and a way of life.It is felt when parish administrator Father Pedro Esteban welcomes a visitor at Mass and everyone turns to greet the newcomer or visitor, or share a smile. It happens when a young couple brings their newborn child to the front of church and the family receives a blessing.
