"For the days of His saving Passion and glorious Resurrection are approaching" is a direct quote from the Preface of the Eucharistic prayers for Masses on Monday-Wednesday of Holy Week.  It will truly be a blessing for each one of us who enters the "Great Three Days" with minds and hearts prepared to participate in the commemoration and celebration of the Paschal Mystery.  The insert in the bulletin gives us scheduled opportunities to gather in prayer, worship and reflection during these days.  While I urge you to participate in as many as you can, make it a priority to come to the principal liturgies (listed on the insert in bold print) on these days.  Anything else we come to, should not be a substitute for, but in addition to, these unique and special liturgies.  Look forward to witnessing and supporting the new life that will come into our midst through the baptisms of Chloe Calhoun and Marcia Wilson at the Paschal Vigil (on Saturday night).  Those who choose to observe the Paschal Fast on Good Friday and Holy Saturday will come to the Easter Vigil (8:00 p.m.) hungry and ready to be filled with what God, and God alone, can provide, which will sustain us throughout the upcoming Easter season.  PLEASE COME.
