Holy Week is Here!

This week is the holiest of all weeks of the year!  During Holy Week, we remember and celebrate the Paschal Mystery - Jesus' Passion, Death and Resurrection!

Let us truly enter into this week through prayer and participation, by attending Holy Thursday Mass, Good Friday Service and Easter Mass, by reflecting on Jesus' suffering and Passion and by reflecting on God's infinite Love, Grace and Mercy for us.

Remember, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.  For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him."  John 3:16-17

I encourage you and your family to attend the Holy Saturday Easter Vigil Mass!  This is the most beautiful Liturgy of the entire year.  At this Mass, you have the opportunity to hear about all of the special people and events in the Old Testament, and remember God's saving grace and work throughout all of history.  Also, you will be a wtiness of those people who have chosen to become full members of the Catholic Church, full members of our Catholic family!  Let us pray for those who will be entering the Church this Saturday night!

Let us truly enter into this week!
