FROM THE PASTOR

Surrexit Dominus! The Lord is Risen! Alleluia! A Happy Mothers’ Day to all of the Mothers, Grandmothers, Godmothers and Mother-Figures in our parish. May God abundantly bless you today and always not only for what you do but who you

are to us and what you mean to us. If your mother is still living be sure to do something nice for her today and let her know you love her. If she is no longer with us remember to offer a special prayer for her today. Those who are no longer with us in this world are still close to us and connected to us in prayer. Our Easter celebration continues. Wednesday Confessions resume this week on May 15 from 7:15-8:00PM in church. Of course Saturday Confessions have already resumed last week on Saturdays from 4:00-4:45PM. Please remember to mark your calendars now that Thursday, May 30 is Ascension Thursday and a holy day of obligation for all faithful Catholics. Masses for the holy day will be at 9:00AM, 12:10PM and 7:00PM. Have a Blessed Week filled with the joy of the Risen Lord
