Hau`oli Lā Hānau Father Edgar Brillantes

Today is Father Edgar's birthday!  It was a real blessing to be able to help Father celebrate his birthday with a beautiful Mass this morning at Saints Peter and Paul Church and then with a little birthday breakfast afterwards.

Birthday Blessing

Heavenly Father,
today is the anniversary of Father Edgar's birth,
the day on which you allowed him to enter
this magnificent world that you have made...
Make him realize that you set him on this earth 
for a reason,
and that he must continue to work
to carry out your plan in every respect.

Thank you for creating Father Edgar...
Help him to remain close to you until his death,
starting from now,
which is the first day of the rest of his life.
Help him to be a holy priest.

Amen.
