My sincere Thank you! for your thoughtfulness, kind words and cards on my birthday. Having my birthday fall on Easter is a true blessing; receiving your kind words and support is a gift! And thank you for sharing your faith and presence within our churches and the Eucharist. Our Holy Week liturgies reflected a prayerfulness and graciousness for the faith we share together; and culminated with a spirit of joy on Easter. We are blessed. Our second graders will receive their First Holy Communion these two weekends; today at Sacred Heart and next Sunday the 19th at St. Malachy. Thank you parents for sharing the Catholic faith with your child, whether in prayers at your home, participating in the Sunday Eucharist, and sharing our Christian values in everyday life.
