Go, therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded of you. And behold I am with you always, until the end of the age.
This is our Catholic mandate as found in Matthew 28:19-20/New American Bible.
Rev. Msgr. John P. Lyons, Pastor
Known as Sam around St. Thomas the Apostle parish, he is currently in search of nickname due to the plethora of Sams(plural) that he knows. He is a Core member on the Life Teen and the Chosen Confirmation Prep youth programs and he also is in the Life Teen band where he plays the bass. In the a.m. he goes to Pima Community College(PCC) and is transferring to the U of A next year for his Bachelors Degree in Psychology and Linguistics. He also works at PCC as a Math, Spanish, Writing, and Reading tutor.
Sam just recently joined the core team in fall of 2015. However, he expresses interest and perhaps a vocation in youth ministry. He enjoys reading classic literature (and comic books), drawing, playing as many musical instruments as he can, all things athletic, health and nutrition, and outdoor adventures.
