An Easter Double Blessing

The St. Vincent de Paul Society of our parish has been busy planning for the distribution of gift cards for Easter meals to their clients. Chapter President Phyllis Pottinger wanted to personalize the distribution of the gift cards by enclosing them in Easter greeting cards. Phyllis asked if the students of the Religious Education program would like to make the cards – and they loved the idea!
Children in grades 3 – 8 made over 100 cards with beautiful spring and Easter illustrations and colors; all have written in or on them “Have a Blessed Easter.”
May this be a blessed and joyful Easter for us all!
More Easter Blessings!

Toward a Pro-Life Future in the Empire State
Humanity’s salvation history was forever changed when a poor, devout Jewish girl from Galilee affirmatively said yes to life and set in motion the birth, ministry, sacrificial death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Mary’s fiat (“Thy will be done.”) was a gift of love to humanity, given freely in spite of her inability to know all that would entail, but with more faith in the Lord than fear of the unknown.
