Here we are, the last week of April, a month that seems to have moved very quickly along. May brings a whole new energy to the parish.

This past Tuesday we were again blessed with the presence of Bishop David O’Connell, C.M., as he celebrated the Sacrament of Confirmation for 122 students from our parish and school. The bishop carefully and clearly explained the gifts of the Holy Spirit and challenged the Confirmandi to remain open to their faith and those gifts in their lives. We pray for them and their families as they continue their journey in faith as now fully initiated members of our Catholic community. Read more.

This is Divine Mercy Sunday, a time when we are particularly reminded anew of the reason for the passion, death, and resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ. As we reflect today on the forgiveness of our individual sins through the work of the church, at the very instruction of Jesus on the day of his resurrection, we are invited to participate more fully in the life of faith. Please join us for the Divine Mercy prayers and devotions beginning at 3:00 pm on Sunday afternoon. Read more.
