Happy Easter
The Lord is Risen Alleluia
Father Michael, the staff and I wish you all a very
Happy and Blessed Easter.
Christ is Risen………
If you have doubt, doubt no more. If you wonder if it is true that
Jesus Christ died and rose from the dead, wonder no more, because
Jesus Christ is alive today !!!
At the empty tomb the angel’s voice proclaimed, “
He is not here, for He is risen, as He said.”
Go in peace singing with joy in your hearts this beautiful Easter Day !

March 26 & 27 – Easter Sunday
2016 Annual Catholic Appeal –
“Blessed are the Merciful for They Shall Obtain
Mercy”
In the Resurrection of Jesus we find hope in the
prospect of everlasting life in heaven. But to obtain
eternal life, we must accept the Lord’s invitation to
follow Him by imitating His love and compassion
for others.
During the weekend of April 9 and 10, our parish
will participate in the 2016 diocesan Annual Cath-
olic Appeal. Funds generated through the Appeal
support the work of the Church by responding to
an abundance of human needs within our diocese.
Your gift helps bring Christ to those who seek his
presence - the poor, the sick, the distressed, our
children and our elderly.
As Christian stewards we are called to a lifelong
conversion to the ways of Jesus. Each of us is asked
to examine the blessings we have received from
God and to discern how best to use them for oth-
ers. We do this cheerfully and sacrificially and
with faith in God’s love for us, knowing that He
will provide for our earthly wants.
You can learn more about the 2016 Annual Catho-
lic Appeal by reading next week’s Dialog or visit-
ing the diocesan website at www.cdow.org; click
“Giving” then “Annual Catholic Appeal.”
