May 15, 2022: Fifth Sunday of Easter

Dear Parishioners:

Easter greetings to all of you. He is Risen. He is truly Risen!

I wanted to take this opportunity to say how wonderful Holy Week, the Triduum and Easter Sunday have been. It was truly special to see so many of you stay on Holy Thursday to spend some quiet time with the Lord and then to see many more of you than usual join us for the very moving Easter Vigil mass. Overall, the number of people attending all masses was so much more like ‘normal’ since the pandemic turned our lives upside down. I pray we continue to worship together every week.

This Sunday we celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday. This feast highlights the Mercy of our God, which very much goes hand-in-hand with the salvation won for us by the Paschal Mystery. Hopefully, we find great comfort in knowing that God loves us so much that his “mercy endures forever.”

May the joy of the Easter Season remain with you these days and always.

Blessings,
Fr. Marc,
Pastor
