Lenten Greetings. 

 

 

St Joseph Feastday is coming on March 19th. On that day we will begin a two day mid-lenten celebration of the foster father of Jesus and the Patron of our Universal Church. We will be hosted by our Pastoral Council with special help from Myra Conti and her son Guy (Guido) who are Sicilians. It is from Italy that this particular celebration comes  so Spaghetti is, of course, the main fare.  Myra will  be assisted by the fine ladies or our Women's Guild. Tickets are currently on sale after the masses and through the office. We are using this evening to greet and recognize our new parish members.

 

Early next month we are celebrating  Holy Week and Easter. We will be hosting  our third annual Shroud of Turin Exhibit. Please consider coming by to see this most important artifact of Christian History. And bring a friend.

 

This is the Year of the Priest and we are all focusing on this special role that Jesus instituted at the Last Supper. We are looking forward to a special event in Lent when actor Leonardo DeFilippis will visit us here and present his one man play on the life of St John Vianney, the Patron Saint of priests.  Thanks to those parishioners who have donated to the effort to help defray the  costs.
