St

Dear Parishioners,

"Laetare!&q= uot; "Rejoice!" As we celebrate the 4th Sunday of Lent, we are o= ver half way to our Easter celebration. Those in the RCIA process are mak= ing their final preparations through the Scrutiny rites. You are being in= vited to participate on one of the area reconciliation services which will begin = this week. We make haste to accomplish our Lenten tasks, so as to truly rejoice in the resurrection.

I see that many = of you are already putting your Easter Flower envelopes in the collection basket. Thank you so much for this. The monies raised at Christ= mas and Easter each year not only pays for the many flowers for these two big liturgical seasons, but this fund also buys ribbon, fabric, and other items needed for our art and environment at our liturgies and in the gathering space. As money builds in the fund, we can purchase major things.&nbs= p; For example, in May, you will see brand new green banners and a set of green vestments the parish has recently purchased from this fund. They will= go up and be used after the Easter season is completed. The parish didn't have a decent green vestment for visiting priests, and now we do - thanks to your continued kind generosity.

Next weekend we = will have sign-up sheets available for those who want to participate liturgicall= y in the Triduum. Please sign up.

Have a blessed L= enten week, Fr. Bill Wegher
