Easter
April 16, 2017
Christ is risen! On
this, the most holy of feast days in the Church, we come to this celebration of
the Risen Lord filled with the hope of a new life. As we proclaim God’s
word, renew our baptismal promises, and join together in this great Eucharistic
celebration, let us be open to the light of Christ in our lives. Let us
answer the call to go forth the rest of our lives proclaiming the marvelous
deeds that God has done for us. Like
St. Pope John Paul II, we should say today “We are Easter people and Alleluia
is our song”. May all of us be rooted in this Easter faith.
I wish to humbly
thank all of our faith family for your support and persistent prayers of
celebration and thanksgiving for all you have accomplished this past year to
move our faith community forward. I thank the army of volunteers who
dedicate your loving service to our parish. We are so blessed to have
such an extraordinarily selfless and dedicated faith family. It has been
my honor to serve you as your Parish Life Coordinator for these nearly five
years. We all join together now in thanksgiving and praise to God as we
look forward to welcoming your new
Priest / Pastor in just a few
weeks. I pray that God’s love and peace fill your lives and those of your
family.
God
Bless
Deacon Jim
