insights and reflections from
father josephWe do not know when the Lord will return to judge the living and the dead. Most people do not know when they will die, and stand before the Lord. This lack of knowledge, however, is not a weakness or a defect in God’s plan. It is rather a call to be prepared always. Not to be on edge with anxiety, however, for worry will not help. Instead, our preparedness should be done with love, looking forward to when we see the One who loves us the most, with the hope that we will be with Him forever.
Father Joseph

Pre-Baptismal Classes-2026The next English and Spanish classes will take place on January 8, 2026, at 7 p.m. Registration is required. Please don't hesitate to contact Diane Salazar in the Family Life office at 972-279-6581, extension 107, or email her at DianeS@stmichaelgarland.org.
Pre-Baptismal classes are designed to help parents and godparents understand their important roles in the baptism of their children. They will learn about the importance of the sacrament and how to guide their children through a lifelong relationship with God and the Catholic Church. We believe that through these classes, parents and godparents will be able to understand their responsibility in the spiritual formation of their children. We encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to learn more about the Catholic faith and to become better prepared for the baptism of their children.
Classes are scheduled for the second Thursday of each month.
There are no baptisms scheduled in December
If your child is older than 6 years, contact Casey Hennigan-Williams at 972-279-6581 extension 108, or Georgina Salinas, extension 109. -

Diocesan SynodThe Diocese of Dallas continues its preparations for the Dallas Synod this year. Bishop Burns has asked that Catholics in the diocese pray for the successor of the synod and the growth of the Catholic faith in our diocese.
The pastoral plan will conclude on December 12, 2031, with a large Mass to celebrate the 500th anniversary of our Lady of Guadalupe’s appearance in San Juan Diego and the conclusion of this decade-long journey of faith and revitalization.
Our Lady of Guadalupe… Pray for us.
