Dear Bishop Michael Kwiatkowski,
On behalf of all the clergy, faithful parishioners, and the entire of the Eparchy of New Westminster, we extend our most heartfelt and joyful congratulations on your birthday!
As you celebrate this special day, we also give thanks to God for the blessing of your leadership during your first year of service in our Eparchy. Your unwavering faith, pastoral care, and tireless dedication have enriched our spiritual lives and brought renewed strength and vision to our community.
Your ministry inspires us to deepen our relationship with Christ and live out our faith with greater courage and love. You have shown us what it means to lead with humility, wisdom, and compassion, and we are truly grateful for your guidance.
May our Loving Lord continue to bless you abundantly with good health, joy, and boundless grace. May the Blessed Mother shelter you under her protective mantle, and may St. Michael the Archangel always be at your side, strengthening you in your episcopal mission.
We pray that the Holy Spirit fills you with His gifts, that your light continues to shine brightly, and that God grants you many joyful years of fruitful service in His vineyard.
With deepest gratitude and prayers,
The Clergy, Parishioners, and Faithful of the Eparchy of New Westminster
