Pastors Corner

The flowers! We come to Church on Easter

and are overwhelmed with the beauty and

fragrance of flowers. Here is an obvious

question: Why flowers? Why do we fill the

Church with flowers to celebrate Easter? The

answer is far more than Easter takes place in

the Spring when the flowers begin to bloom.

There is a deeper meaning than that. The

flowers signify the beauty of a world renewed. Easter

celebrates the beauty of renewed life in Christ.

John’s Gospel tells us that the world was darkened when

Jesus died on that horrible hill. It also tells us that He was

raised from the dead and walked out of the tomb into a

garden, one so full of flowers that Mary Magdalene initially

thought that Jesus was the gardener.

The flowers are a symbol of the new life that the Lord

offers to those who will commit their lives to Him. We are

called to be part of this beauty. We are called to be flowers.

The Family of Don Church wishes to sincerely

thank all the people who have made our loss a

bit lighter with your messages of condolence,

our gifts of food, your participation in the funeral

mass, your hugs, and your prayers. Many

thanks to Fr. Ron Boudreaux and Fr. Tom Kennedy for

celebrating the mass itself; thanks to all the musicians,

Sharon, Monica, and all who sang the songs that Don had

requested; to J.R. and Pat Boerner who served as

Eucharistic ministers; to all the wonderful cooks who

brought food and those who so graciously served it; to all

who sent flowers; to those who had masses offered; and to

those who sent beautiful cards of sympathy. A special

thanks to the 4th Degree Knights for the lovely chalice

donated in Don’s name and for the Color Guard who

ushered us into the church and then ushered us out.

You have all helped to lift us up and helped us bear our

burden of grief.
