Happy Easter! Christ is Risen Alleluia! He is Risen Indeed Alleluia!!!


Happy Easter! As I type this post, we are less than two hours until the Easter Vigil! I am so excited for Easter. I am also excited this year to be a sponsor for a friend who will be confirmed. Please pray for all who will be baptized tonight and for those who will receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. Pray too for perseverance because the Easter Vigil Mass is traditionally longer with several readings from Sacred Scripture (Gn 1:1—2:2 or 1:1, 26-31a / Gn 22:1-18 or 22:1-2, 9a, 10-13, 15-18 / Ex 14:15-15:1 / Is 54:5-14 / Is 55:1-11 / Bar 3:9-15, 32, 4:48 / Ex 36:16-17a, 18-28 as well as Rom 6:3-11 and Mt 28:1-10 along with several Psalm passages).

I hope and pray you have a very blessed Easter this weekend and for this next 50 Days or so, a blessed Easter Season.  

God bless you and if you have time, check out my parish website with more Easter information so you may continue to go deeper into this wonderful time of year! Jesus is Risen Alleluia! He is Risen indeed Alleluia!        Father Joshua
