Easter Sunday

Dear friends in Christ 
A blessed and happy Easter to you all!

We have ended our Lenten pilgrimage ready to celebrate the Paschal Mystery. Throughout the forty days of Lent we have accompanied Our Lord in His journey towards Jerusalem where the events of our salvation have been accomplished. Let us now celebrate the next fifty days rejoicing in the faith that the Risen Christ brings.

I thank all those who have helped to make our celebrations in church a time of real meeting with Jesus, and all of you who, by your prayers and good works, had made this time spiritually fulfilling. Many of you contribute to the life of the Parish Family in a quiet consistent way. I thank you all for the help you give in the service of the Church. God reward you all for your generosity.

Our heartfelt prayers and good wishes go to those who are Baptised and Received into the Church this Easter by Confirmation and the Holy Eucharist. Please pray especially for: Robyn Brown, Rosa Frankis, Briady-Rose Keeble, Jacqueline Cosgree, Deborah Luff, Samuel Meredith, Kate Strover, Joseph Smith, Corinne Smith, Jason Bell, Cheryl Hill, Mark Hill, & Carla Dobkin, may God give them perseverance in their vocation in belonging to His Holy Catholic Church.

God grant us all a joyful Eastertide!
Msgr Kevin Hale
