Over the past two weekends, our parish celebrated the Grade 2 students from our six elementary schools including private and public schools as they received the Holy Eucharist for the first time. May God continue to bless them with His grace and love, and we ask you to keep them, their families, and all who have guided them in faith in your prayers.

We would like to thank Leo and Adrianna Staltieri from Monastery Bakery & Delicatessen who graciously donated the beautiful fresh flower arrangement for our First Holy Communion Masses. May God bless them for their kindness and stewardship.

Our Grade two students were blessed to participate in their First Holy Communion retreats as they prepare to receive Jesus in the Holy Eucharist for the very first time this weekend and next.

We ask for your prayers for these precious children, that their hearts may always remain open to God’s love. May the Eucharist strengthen them, guide them, and draw them ever closer to Christ.

Our Church is all ready to welcome you for The Easter Vigil which begins at 8 pm tonight. Kindly arrive 10 minutes early to receive your candle and be seated.

Our catechumens who have prepared all year through the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) will be baptized. We will also renew our own baptismal promises.

Come celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ!

Holy Saturday commemorates the day Jesus Christ's body lay in the tomb after His crucifixion on Good Friday. It is a day of quiet contemplation, as we reflect on the significance of Christ's sacrifice and await the hope of His resurrection. The day symbolizes the transition from death to life, darkness to light, and despair to hope.

This morning, Father Peter blessed many Easter baskets, filled with the traditional foods we love. This yearly tradition is very close to our hearts and marks the end of our Lenten fast.
