Almsgiving
Help Our Sharing Parishes This Lent!
This year we are focusing our attention on the needs of our brothers and sisters at our Sharing Parishes—Sts. Martha, Mary & Lazarus Parish (formerly St. Margaret of Scotland) and St. Simon of Cyrene (formerly St. Martin de Porres, merged with St. Agatha.) We will collect Grocery Store Gift Cards to distribute before Palm Sunday so that families in need can purchase what they need for a wonderful Easter Dinner for their families, easing the burden caused by recent rising prices. There is a box in the parish office, or drop in the Offertory basket.
We’re hoping to feed 50 families, with $100 each. Deadline: March 15! Give electronically, and we'll go pick up the cards: https://ppay.co/W834NSHgd_Q

Holy Week | Triduum
The summit of the Liturgical Year is the Easter Triduum—from the evening of Holy Thursday to the evening of Easter Sunday. Though chronologically three days, they are liturgically one day unfolding for us the unity of Christ's Paschal Mystery. The single celebration of the Triduum marks the end of the Lenten season, and leads to the Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord at the Easter Vigil.

Easter Vigil | March 30, 2024
On this holy night, the Church keeps watch, celebrating the resurrection of Christ in the sacraments and awaiting his return in glory. It is the turning point of the Triduum, the Passover of the new covenant, which marks Christ's passage from death to life. Therefore, the Easter Vigil does not correspond to the usual Saturday evening Mass and its character is unique in the cycle of the liturgical year.
