5th Sunday Rosary - normally recited in the evening followed by potluck supper, because it falls on Easter Sunday, the rosary will be prayed following both Sunday Masses. All are welcome to stay for a little extra prayer on this Feast of Feasts!

.

PLEASE remember in your prayers the sick of the parish, including Amanda Panshoukian, Kathy O'Connor, Maddeline West, Mallieen Stiemel, Mariella Merritt, Pamela Arnold, Shawn Leahy, Janice Grant, Lillian Herz, Rhonda and Otis Bain, Ellen Cimino, Ed Weatherby, Jeff and Vivian Limbeck, Rob Demaris, Francis Early and his great-granddaughter Frances Benson, along with their families and caregivers. Pray fervently for peace in Ukraine, Sudan, where millions of persons have been displaced and famine is immanent, the Holy Land, and especially Gaza, where innocent civilians are dying in great numbers, and there are hostages in danger. Remember the victims of the Key Bridge accident in Baltimore, and those killed and injured in the terrorist attack on Crocus Hall near Moscow. Pray for those in other troubled areas of our world, and victims of violence everywhere. Pray that the world's shipping lanes remain open and safe for everyone. Remember the people and any of God's creatures suffering in the aftermath of various disasters, as well as those suffering from human cruelty and neglect.
