Join Us April 4th at 8:30 PM – Easter Vigil

🕯️ Tonight at 8:30 PM, we gather at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church for the Easter Vigil—the most beautiful and hope‑filled liturgy of the year. We begin in quiet darkness, waiting together for the light of Christ to break through. As the new fire is blessed and the Easter candle is carried into the church, we’ll watch the whole space come alive with the glow of faith and promise. Come celebrate the victory of light over darkness and life over death with your parish family. Alleluia!
