Dear People of Holy Name,

Happy Easter!  Our Lenten observance makes the light of Easter brighter for all of us.  I would like to thank all who participated in Masses, Stations of the Cross and study groups these forty days.  Also, I thank all who helped make the liturgies the good experiences they were.  To all our ministers and to our musicians who give of their time for rehearsals and add so much to celebrations- thank you.  To Phil too, who through baptism by fire, led the complex and involved liturgies of Holy Week with the help of staff.

God bless you all and may the joy of Easter fill your hearts and shine through your days.

To the Family of St. Leonard’s,

Thank you for being a part of Lent, Holy Week and Easter.  It is through the community that we can feel and enter into the Spirit of Lent and Easter.   I thank each of you for your presence.  Thanks to all our ministers and people who make our liturgies happen.  Let us especially acknowledge Zara who plans our music and helps the great voice of our community sing.  Sundays are our moment to join the heavenly choir and feel the other-worldliness that music shared, can make real.

God bless you all and may the joy of Easter fill your hearts and shine through your days.

Peace,

Fr. Leo
