Easter Greetings to Parishioners, Guests and Benefactors! May your heart sing with joy of the Risen Lord
on His Resurrection Feast. “This is the day that the Lord
has made, let us rejoice and be glad.”
Have a Blessed Easter,
Fr. Joseph Tokarczyk
and Staff
A Prayer for the Easter
Season
Begin with the Sign of the Cross:
Risen Lord,
We greet you with joy
this Easter season
and we thank you for the
gift of new life.
Bless our food,
our family
and our friends,
And help us
to celebrate the springtime
in our hearts
as we rejoice
in the good news
of your Resurrection.
Alleluia! Amen.
Conclude with the Sign of the Cross.
April 5-Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord John 20:1-9: This Easter Gospel tells us that Mary Magdalene was
the first person to learn what happened to Jesus. Seeing that the stone
had been moved from the tomb, she ran to tell Simon Peter and the
other disciple, who hurried to the tomb and discovered only the cloths
that had covered Jesus’ body. They knew that Jesus had risen from
the dead. You, too, have good news about Jesus. What do you do about it?

Prayer for Our Soldiers
O God, almighty and most gracious,
help keep our men and women safe while
they are defending our freedom. Help them
fight with valor, serve with honor, and
come home when the fight is won. For
those who should fall to any harm, O Lord, please
watch over them so that they can return home to the
families who love them. In the dark of night and the
heat of battle, may our prayers—and your divine
love—give them comfort and protection. This we
pray, Amen.
Outreach to the Homebound and Hospitalized
If you know of someone within our parish community
who is ill and cannot come to Mass, please call the rectory with their name and phone. Also, anyone anticipating
surgery or stay in the hospital may request the sacrament
of the anointing of the sick. Because of HIPAA regulations, hospitals do not notify us when a parishioner is
admitted. Please call the rectory office so that Father
may be notified.
Market Day delivery will be Thursday, April 9 Order
forms are at the doors of the church. Market Day is the food buying service that delivers quality frozen items to the
school gym for the convenience
of customers.
The Thrift Shop is open Thursdays from 10:00 to
1:00. Come to browse and see the treasures you can
find. There are party goods, books, cards, winter clothing, jewelry, etc..
Baptismal Class
For first time parents will be held on Monday, April 13
at 7 pm in the school. Please call the rectory if you are
planning on attending.
Life is fragile—Handle with Prayer
Please consider attending the Holy Hour each third Thursday of the month from 2:30 to 3:30. The next Holy Hour
will be Thursday, April 15.
The Shepherd of the Highlands Prayer Group meets on
the first Tuesday of each month at 2:00 pm in the church.
The next meeting will be Tuesday, April 7. For more information, please contact Josephine Federico at –4529 or
Dolly Van Zetta at –3221.
The Sacred Heart Bible Study Group meets on Thursdays in the sacristy of the church from 7:15-8:45 pm. The

Catholic Scripture Study series. Please contact Dorothea
Wojciechowski at 446-3819 for more information.
Cardinal’s Appeal
Our goal this year is $39,000. To date,
56 parishioners have pledged $17,190.
We are at 44% of our goal. Your gift of
$5, $15 or $20 would go a long way in
assisting with major charitable programs
that the Archdiocese is involved with.
Envelopes are at the doors of the church
if your means allow you to make any donation.
Thank you for your generosity!
