Dear Parishioners,

The month of May is upon us, a beautiful time in the life of the Church when we honor our Blessed Mother and give thanks for the gift of our own mothers. I invite you to make a simple but powerful commitment this month: pray the Memorare each day for peace- in our hearts, our families, our nation, and our world.

Dear Parishioners,

This Fourth Sunday of Easter is traditionally celebrated as Good Shepherd Sunday, a day when the Church invites us to reflect more deeply on the tender and faithful care of Christ for His people. Throughout the Scriptures, especially in the Old Testament, we encounter the powerful image of the shepherd: one who watches attentively over the flock, leading them to safety, nourishing them, protecting them from harm, and never abandoning them in times of danger or need.

Dear Parishioners,

Happy Easter! As we continue our journey through this joyful season, we are invited to draw ever more deeply into the wellspring of God’s mercy and love. After the forty days of Lent, it can be tempting to slip back into old routines once Easter Sunday has passed. But this is not what the Lord desires for us.

Dear Parishioners,

We are now in the heart of the fifty days of Easter, a season of joy in which we celebrate God’s love revealed in and through the Cross and made radiant in the empty tomb at the Altar. This is our great proclamation: Jesus Christ has conquered sin and death and draws each of us into new life.

Easter greetings and blessings to all who have joined us for the celebration of Mass on this glorious Easter Sunday. We pray that your hearts are filled with the joy and peace that comes only from the Risen Lord.

For forty days we journeyed through Lent, allowing the Lord to prepare us for these great Fifty Days of Easter. Along the way, we fixed our gaze on the Cross, learning again that God’s love is revealed most fully in sacrifice.
