From the Pastor’s Desk

My Dear People,

Happy Daylight Savings Time!  If you forgot to spring forward your clocks by one hour, you might have been an hour late for Mass today!  We observed the Fourth Sunday of Lent at all of our Masses this weekend and at our 10:00AM Mass we prayed with and for our RCIA Catechumens and Candidates the Second of the three Lenten Scrutiny Prayers.

 Archbishop Daniel will be here in New Albany today at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church to confer the Sacrament of Confirmation on many of our young Deanery Catholics at two Masses beginning at 2:00PM and 5:00PM.  Our 34 Holy Family Candidates, supported by their Sponsors, will be receiving this final Sacrament of Initiation at the 2:00PM service.  All are welcome to attend!

 On Wednesday of this week our Holy Family School students will celebrate Lenten Communal Penance Services in Church at 9:30AM and again at 1:00PM and next Saturday morning at 10:00AM we will be celebrating First Reconciliation with our Catholic Faith Formation 2nd Graders and a Lenten Communal Penance Server for students in Grades 3-8.

 Holy Family School will begin Spring Break Week at the close of the School Day this Friday, March 19th.

 God’s peace and all my love,

 Father Sonny Day
