From the Pastor’s Desk: Christ is Risen Indeed!

Happy Easter! As we celebrate the primary feast of the Christian Faith, and throughout these days of rejoicing in the Easter Season, know that you and your families remain in my prayers. An Easter Prayer from St. Catherine of Siena:

O eternal God, light surpassing all other light, because all light comes froth from you! O fire surpassing every fire, because you alone are the fire that burns without consuming! We long for you constantly. The more we possess you, the more we seek you, and the more we seek and desire you, the more we find and enjoy you.

Amen.

In these days of solemnity and celebration, we are called to radiate the greatness of God’s Mercy and share the truth of the Risen Christ with our family, friends, and all those that we know and love.

Have a Safe and Blessed Easter,

Fr. Wilke
