Pastor's Corner

Dear St. Cecilia Family,

Praise God from whom all blessings flow. I am grateful to Archbishop Perez for entrusting your wonderful parish to my pastoral care. I have been blessed by the kindness of Father Bonner and the staff of the parish and the school who have welcomed me to your community. 

I have been a priest since 1999. I served as Parochial Vicar at Our Lady of Ransom for five years, School Minister at Archbishop Wood High School for four years and as Pastor of St. Raymond for the past fourteen years. Over the years I have visited St. Cecilia many times and have had priest friends serve there. Each has loved your community and have told me how blessed I am to join you. My work at St. Cecilia will build on the great work of Fr. Bonner, Msgr. Dreger and all of the leaders of the parish. I am excited to bring my own love for Jesus Christ and the way to salvation he has given to the Church. I have much to learn about the parish and all of the wonderful members of the community. It will take time and I plan to use this time well – for our good and the glory of God!

Please pray that I do not ruin the good work that God has planned for me. If you should need to contact me, please use this email: frchriswalsh@stceciliafc.com.

Fr. Chris (which I prefer to Fr. Walsh)
