Dear beloved parishioners of Our Lady of Guadalupe and Saint Rose of Lima, By now many of you have heard that I have been reassigned by Bishop Edward Weisenberger. I will be moving the weekend of July 1 st to become the Pastor of Saint Joseph s Parish in Tucson, Az. It is a large Parish with a School. Please pray for me and my transition. I will miss Graham county and the great people who have built up this community. You have taught me a lot, and I hope I was a good spiritual guide. We have been through a lot. Please continue to teach your children the faith so they continue to grow strong. My prayers are with you. Bishop Edward Weisenberger has assigned Rev. Nicodemus Shaghel, V.C. to Graham County. He is currently serving at Immaculate Conception Parish in Yuma, Az., and my home parish. My family and the parish are heart broken that Fr. Nicodemus will be leaving them. He is primarily a teacher at Yuma Catholic High School. He works with youth and wants them to learn their faith correctly. I hope and pray that together with Our Lady of Guadalupe and Saint Rose of Lima we will make Fr. Nicodemus s transition a smooth one. He is a good friend and brother priest and I look forward to meeting with him in the next few months before he begins his service here July 3rd. Rev. Robert A. Rodriguez ***Update*** Please pray for the father of Rev. Nicodemus who is gravely ill. He will be making a trip to Nigeria and has plans to return in July. Rev. Nicodemus first day will be July 3rd. God Bless
