Fr. Jojireddy (Joe) Konkala, has been named as Fr. Edward’s replacement as Parochial Vicar at Our Lady of Fatima Parish. Fr. Joe was born on April 10, 1981 in Nusikattala Village, Andhra Pradesh, India, where his mother still lives. His father passed away in January, 2021. He has two brothers and one sister. Fr. Joe joined the seminary and studied theology before he was ordained a priest on April 19, 2010 by the Most Reverend Anthony Poola, the Present Cardinal for the Diocese of Kurnool in the state of Andhra Pradesh, India. Fr. Joe has served various roles in five parishes since his ordination, including parishes in India as well as at St. Patrick’s Church in Shamrock, Texas, in the Diocese of Amarillo. Let us welcome Fr. Joe to our parish, and we look forward to his ministry.
This past Wednesday, Fr. Edward Okpu was found to have experienced a "massive" stroke that has left him severely incapacitated. He is currently hospitalized and we are told that he faces a long and challenging period of rehabilitation with extensive therapy. It appears unlikely that Fr. Edward will be returning to our parish for quite some time. We are grateful to Fr. Edward for the ministry he has provided here at Our Lady of Fatima Parish, and ask everyone to pray for his recovery.
The Stations of the Cross will be prayed in the church at 7:00 PM on Fridays during Lent (February 24, 2023 through March 31, 2023). The Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) will be offered prior to the Stations of the Cross, from 6:00 PM - 6:45 PM.

God gave many of us the gift of music-making. Are you one of those fortunate people? And are you willing to share your gift in making our liturgies more meaningful and joyful? We are currently looking to expand the music program and need volunteers to help. Mark Adrian, our Director of Music, is seeking to implement some changes to Our Lady of Fatima’s liturgical music. Let’s see how we can include your talent in our liturgies. Call Mark Adrian at the church office: 505-265-5868.
