MESSAGE FROM Fr. JIM:
My prayer this Easter Day is that you will allow the resurrection of the Lord to bring fresh strength to your spirit, peace to your mind, and joy to your soul. As we renew our Baptismal vows, let us never forget that we are the Easter people who are called to bring hope where there is despair and light where there is darkness. Christ’s victory over death is a beacon for all who feel weary, burdened, or lost. His rising is our rising into renewed faith when we face the challenges of uncertainty.
Let us carry the light of the Risen Lord into every corner of our lives. May His resurrection give us strength in trials, comfort in sorrow, and an unshakable hope in those words, “I promise you today you will be with me in paradise.”
With every Blessing to you and your families this Easter.
Father Jim
