RELIGION: New priest here
Continued from page A1
calm man who is already
suffering from the area's
high allergen content,
believes that God is a
healer.
"I am a person who
is very much about heal-
ing," he explained. "God
is gentle, compassionate
and strong. People need
to hear and experience
that—especially in our
day and time."
That may explain
why Aguilar's favorite
saint is the Archangel
Gabriel, who serves as a
messenger of God.
"He is the bringer
of good news," Aguilar
said.
Aguilar said he is
well aware that the par-
sh has some healing to
do after losing the be-
loved Dokupil.
He relates a story of
how when he first got to
the parish two weeks ago,
he found a pair of Dokupil's
shoes under his bed. The
shoes were a size 16.
"I have big shoes to fill,"
Aguilar said. "He was a
true shepherd to this com-
munity. I think he was a
true example of Christ's
presence to the church and
to the community outside of
the church. When he died,
it wasn't just the parish
who grieved."
Aguilar said he does not
take for granted the legacy
he is following, but as he
assumes the duties of the
parish priest, he says he
has been welcomed by open
arms.
"I have been received
with a lot of love, support
and openness," he said. "It
was an immediate expe-
rience of the beauty that
these people are about.
This is a wonderful place to
be a priest."
