Today we celebrate the Octave Day of the resurrection of Jesus and the promise of our own resurrection. Jesus showed us the way to resurrection runs through the cross. Alleluia! Easter is so important in our liturgical year; we will celebrate it for 8 Sundays ending with Pentecost. Jesus has risen from the dead and promised us that if we live close to him in this life, we will live forever with him in heaven when we die. Alleluia!

At our last Parochial Council Meeting, we discussed at length the make up of the Council. The Council meets once a month after the 10:30 AM Mass to discuss what’s going on in the parish. The Council advises me, the pastor, on what is happening and on things we might try. The meetings usually last from 12:15 – 1:45 PM. Sometimes they don’t even last that long. We are looking for some new members. If you are interested, please talk to a Council member about this. The list is on the front of the Bulletin.

If enough people show interest, we will probably have some new appointments to the Council and maybe even an election later in the year. Remember any parishioner can attend any Council meeting.
