You Are Invited
My dear brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, Holy Week allows us to walk with Jesus during His Passion, keeping our eyes on Him who loves us, seeking Him instead of the temptations on earth that take our hearts and minds away from Him.
With a prayerful heart, I invite all of you who can to join us at church during Holy Week. Please come and experience God’s great love for us.
Thank you for everything you do for our parish family and me. Please keep one another in your prayers and share your time and talents. Your prayers and service keep our parish family alive, and I thank you so much.
I will be leaving on April 29 to go home for a month to visit my family. Please keep me in your prayers as I travel to India, and know that you will also be in my prayers at the daily Masses.
This Easter season, may you find God in your heart, waiting to welcome you back with joy and peace! Rejoice in the Lord always!
Holy Thursday, March 28, 7 PM—Mass of the Lord’s Supper followed by Adoration of the Most Holy Eucharist until 10 PM.
Good Friday, March 29, 3 PM—Outside Stations of the Cross. At 7 PM—Veneration of the Cross.
Holy Saturday, March 30, No Confessions. At 8 PM—Easter Vigil Mass followed by Breaking of the Lenten Fast.
Easter Sunday, March 31, 8 AM and 10 AM—Holy Mass.
Remember always that the Peace and Joy that we wish one another at Easter is often very easily uttered, but Our Lord Jesus Christ, at a great price, brought it to us. It was at the cost of the great suffering that He endured so selflessly and so full of love for us. As St. John tells us: “God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son to save us.”
I hope to see you all in this Holy Week at church.
With gratitude, love and prayers,
Fr. Charley
