FROM THE PRINCIPAL

As Catholics, we are obligated to go to mass every Sunday but only obligated to receive communion once a year, at Easter. It is important to go to confession to prepare for the beautiful gift of the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Christ. If you have not had the chance to go to confession this lent, there is still time. Father will offer confession (not communion as previously stated) this Thursday and Friday at 5:00 and Saturday at 3:30. Take time to reconcile your heart with God this Easter. The gifts you will receive are out of this world.

Just over three weeks until the big event and only forty percent (40%) of our auction tickets are available. Don't miss out, get your tickets today!

Yours In Christ, Mrs. Morga, O.P.
