Dear Parishioners, It is hard to believe that we are almost at Holy Week! I have included the schedule on the bulletin cover so that you may plan accordingly for participat-ing in the special liturgies of Holy Week -- and make note of the Confession opportunities that will be available, as well. I know I am repeating myself, but please plan to get to Confession this week if at all possible. The lines will al-ready be growing, but I am sure they will be nothing like they will be next week. This week we will be offering Confessions Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday after the regularly scheduled Masses, Wednesday evening from 6:30 - 8:00pm, and during the Thursday evening Holy Hour. Sincerely in Christ,
Clergy Reverend Richard M. Guest, Pastor Reverend James C. Hinkle, Parochial Vicar Reverend Jordan M. Willard, Parochial Vicar Deacon Paul C. Konold
