PARISH BULLETIN
APRIL 11, 1999
Second Sunday of Easter

Christ is Risen, Alleluia

I pray that your Easter Celebration was joyful and full of Grace. Once again it is Spring Time in the Spiritual Life of the Church. During the Easter Vigil, we celebrated the Easter Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and First Eucharist. Last month we celebrated First Reconciliation. This week we celebrate Confirmation. Next month we celebrate First Communion and in the next few months we have a number of Marriages planned. We are blessed indeed.
