from our pastor

Dear Folks,
                                            pax et bonum
Today is Mother’s Day! Happy Mother’s Day! I assure you of my
prayers and blessing. I share this quote that I often resurface for this
day:

"The most important person on earth is a mother. She cannot claim the
honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral. She need not. She has
built something more magnificent than any cathedral------a dwelling
for an immortal soul, the tiny perfection of her baby's body."

"The Angels have not been blessed with a such a grace. They cannot
share in God's creative miracle to bring new Saints to Heaven. Only a
human mother can. Mothers are closer to God the Creator than any
other creatures. God joins forces with mothers in performing this act of
creation."

"What on God's good earth is more glorious than this: to be a mother?”

				                                — Joseph Cardinal Mindszenty

I think our Easter Sunday music may have been our best ever this
year! Yet that amazing beauty is ephemeral. However, the beauty
of soul loving God is created to endure forever! Thanks moms for
all that you do to give us life and lead us to Life Himself. Today we
thank you for your love, generosity and faithfulness. Even if we don't
express our love and gratitude daily, you are faithful and treasured. Be
strengthened by the grace of God to carry on your vocation.

 Next week we will have our little May Crowning Ceremony at the
beginning of Masses. All (yes all — children especially, but all)
parishioners are will be invited to bring forward a flower to be placed
at the feet of the statue of Mary while we sing a Marian hymn. Just
bring a flower to Mass, and you and/or your children will be called
back to the vestibule before Mass begins. Children who made (or will
make) their First Holy Communion this year, are also encouraged to
wear their Holy Communion clothes and given a place of honor in
the procession.

Again moms, we love you and thank God for you.

pax,

Fr. Mosimann

              Annual Grandparent’s Day Returns

              their grandparents, showing off the beautiful Holy Cross

A National    enjoyed a delicious baked ziti lunch, visited their
