Happy Anniversary, Fr. Pat!

   Today, we wish our pastor, Fr. Patrick Michaels, all of God's blessings on the anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood.  God has a special place for each of us to serve, and Fr. Pat has followed his path with beautiful devotion and the care of a true shepherd.  We are so very grateful for his willingness to give tirelessly of himself and to accomplish so much wherever God has placed him, but most especially here at Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Mill Valley.  Thank you, Fr. Pat, for your deep dedication to and love for God and his Church, and much love to you as you continue to live out your vocation!
