Second Sunday of Easter (Divine Mercy Sunday) Year A 01 May 2011
MANY THANKS to all who celebrate the Easter liturgies with us in body – or in Sprit. They were filled with hope and love of a great God who did not count equality with god a thing to be grasped. Those who offered their gifts in the Church, Sacristy and the office have done so with grace and fruit. And many thanks from the clergy for the very generous Easter offerings. May God bless you and your loved ones.
