April 2021

Dear Parishioners:

Alleluia!  The Lord is risen indeed.  As we celebrate this joyful Easter season we also are joyous at the progress we have made in moving our liturgies back indoors.  The entire Easter Triduum was celebrated inside the church this year!

As we make progress in our treatment of COVID-19, we hope that very soon we will be able to open our church to allow more people to attend Masses.  In order to do that, the requirement for distancing between families and individuals has to be reduced.

Many of our programs have had in person meetings but we are not quite there yet for some of the programs.  Our hope is that in the fall we will be able to return to close to pre-pandemic times.  In the meantime let us be patient and as careful as we can.  If we do this we will be able to conquer COVID.

We continue to pray for all those who are still ill from the virus, for those who care for them, for those separated from their loved ones and for those who have lost family members or friends in death.

May God continue to bless all of you and let you know of his tender care for you and your families.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Monsignor Paul Albee
Pastor
