Easter Season
This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad.
The Easter Season is the fifty-day period when the Church celebrates the resurrection of Jesus and the new life He brings to the world. It begins on Easter Sunday and continues until Pentecost, inviting us to live with hope, joy, and trust in the risen Lord.
- Start each day with a short prayer of thanks for new life.
- Do a small act of kindness for someone who needs it.

Divine Mercy
Praying the Chaplet is a simple yet powerful way to entrust ourselves and the whole world to the mercy of Jesus.
The Church teaches that this devotion brings many spiritual graces, including
- A deeper trust in the mercy of God
- Graces of forgiveness and conversion for ourselves and others
- Peace for the dying and comfort for those in need
- Spiritual strength to grow in faith and hope

Archbishop’s Annual Appeal
Dear Parish Family,
Thank you sincerely for the generosity you continue to show our parish and the wider Church. Your prayers, time, and financial support truly make a difference in many lives. The 2026 Archbishop’s Annual Appeal is a shared effort across our Archdiocese, helping fund ministries that serve the poor, form seminarians, educate children, and strengthen families.
Jesus reminds us, “Blessed are the merciful.” Your generosity is a living sign of that mercy. Please prayerfully consider supporting this year’s Appeal. Thank you, and may God bless you always. - Fr. Suarez
