An Easter Message from the Pastor

An Easter Message from the Pastor

Our heartfelt gratitude to all of you who make our celebration of the Paschal Mystery such a wonderful experience.  The number of persons who deserve our gratitude is very large, and we wish we could thank each one here.

We are profoundly grateful to Joe Brown, Sr. Jean and Fr. Vincent who so devotedly prepared our candidates for Baptism, Confirmation, and Reception into our Church.

A thousand thanks to floral designer Michael Mangiello and his creative team of volunteers who arranged the visual splendor of Holy Week in our church!

Long and loud applause to Jin Krista Kang and her classical choir for their unparalleled liturgical music!

A standing ovation to Jonathan Tessero, Celina Charlier, and the Contemporary Christian Choir for their excellent Easter program!

Particular blessings to Charlie Martin, Tom Hull, Jurek Schoneich, John Behre, and the liturgical ministers who devoutly serve at the altar—Holy Week and every week!

Last but not least, a heartfelt thanks to the very reliable Judy Magida for dependably organizing a welcoming team of efficient volunteer ushers!

Out thanks to all the other volunteers not individually named but assuredly in our prayers.  Please know that the entire community thanks you for your generosity and selflessness.  Your reward will be great in heaven.

John P. McGuire, O.P.
