Wow! Our celebrations over the three days of the Triduum and Easter were very beautiful! Our Church looks great and festive as we celebrate Easter. Many, many thanks to all who helped to make all of this possible. To our lectors, Eucharistic ministers, servers, musicians, choir and singers, thank you! To our church decorating volunteers and cleaners, thank you! To our office and maintenance staff, thank you! To Fr. Tony and our Deacons, thank you! And to all who joined together in worship, thank you! We couldn’t do it without the help of so many who give of their time and talent.
Thank you to our Ladies Sodality for the awesome Easter Bake Sale and Bazaar. A new crew of cinnamon roll bakers were recruited and trained! They got there at 3:30 a.m. to do the baking. That’s incredible! And what a gift to all who got to enjoy those rolls! As I was walking over to the Easter Bake Sale, the smell of those rolls wafted down the street - the best advertising ever! Thanks again to all who volunteered and to all who came to support our Ladies Sodality.
I want to call your attention to another survey that is available. As part of the All Things New strategic pastoral planning initiative, you are encouraged to share your input about Catholic Education in the Archdiocese of St. Louis. This is a different survey than the DMI Survey that many people completed last month. The education survey is open to all current/former/ prospective parents, alumni, faculty, staff, administrators, donors, volunteers, and community members of both Catholic Schools and Parish-based Religious Education programs. The Education Survey is available to be completed from April 5 through May 2 and can be accessed here: https://allthingsnew.archstl.org/education-survey.
