Blessed Easter Wednesday Everyone!
I pray your Easter was full of joy and gratitude for the gift of our redemption received through the Paschal Mysteries!
First off, tonight we meet for a Easter Potluck and Game Night, and, Barry says, "some running amok" as well. We'll have fun and fellowship; so come! And wear something comfortable. We meet in St. Bakhita Hall - at Annunciation - at 6:30pm.
Below you'll find some other upcoming events and activities taking place around the Archdiocese and Annunciation, and we have some special mentions!
Hope to see you all tonight!
Sr Lisa Marie
Congratulations to the Reidelbach's!
First, a huge welcome to Baby Ric Reidelbach who came into the world just two weeks ago! At just six days old he attended his first Easter Vigil to support his dad, Noah as he was received fully into the Catholic Church. Congratulations to Rebecca, Noah and Ric!
We have enjoyed having Fr. Thomas Paickattu (i keep wanting to say Pikachu, sorry Father!) help out at Our Lady of the Annunciation Church while Fr. Ramos was away filling in for another parish priest in the Archdiocese.
Fr. Thomas has been temporarily assigned at Holy Ghost Parish until the vacancy left by the death of Fr. Mark Schultz is filled. He will remain in residence at Annunciation during the transition to his permanent assignment.
Please keep Fr. Thomas in prayer during this time of transition.
And speaking of prayer:
