EASTER THANKS: A special word of thanks to all those who were involved in any way to prepare and help celebrate our Easter Triduum. Special thanks to the members of the Parish who came out to decorate the Church. Thank you to our musicians who lead us in song and prayer. Their gift of music helps lift our spirits to celebrate these special Masses. We are also grateful to all who donated to our flower fund in memory of a loved one. Everyone’s cooperation and assistance has truly made our Easter Triduum special and meaningful. A big thank you to Fr. Léo, Deacon Larry, David Wight for all their hard work to make our Easter Triduum celebrations so special!
LIVING FAITH FOR KIDS: The Catholic Literature Fund Committee has supplied us with Living Faith for Kids which is a three month booklet of daily prayers, reflections and activities for children. They are at the entrance of the church, please take one for the kids in your life.
WELCOMING NEW MEMBERS TO OUR CHURCH: Throughout this year we have had three people journeying through our RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) process. They have been exploring our Catholic Faith with the intention of becoming full members of our Church. During the Easter Vigil we welcomed Brayden Postma who celebrated the Sacrament of Baptism and Confirmation and John & Karen Rank who celebrated the Sacrament of Confirmation.
PARENTING TIP: Easter is a time of great joy in the Church, one that should last far beyond Easter Sunday. Christ died for our sins, giving us eternal life with God. His death and resurrection though, holds a wonderful lesson for all who believe. As Pope John Paul II said, Easter helps us to understand that, “ We are an Halleluiah People.” In other words, we always have hope and faith as our pillars of strength, no matter the difficulties in our lives. An understanding of this is the best gift we could give to our children this Easter, so talk about it and celebrate the gift of this great season with your family!
CWL BURSARY:  OMPH CWL council is offering a $200.00 bursary to a secondary school student who is graduating this spring and attending a post secondary institution in September or January. This person will have received the Sacraments of initiation, practise the faith, participate in Mass and in the life of the parish on a regular basis. Please reply to the Parish office before May 31st.
FIRST COMMUNION: A reminder to parents who have participated in the preparation process for First Communion this year: please call the office to notify us of the date and time your child will receive Jesus, the Bread of Life, for the first time. First Communion will be celebrated from Saturday April 7th to Sunday, May 19th.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS MEETING will take place on Tuesday, April 16th at 7:30 P.M.. All members are invited to attend.
