promises. A bus will be provided to

inviting you to join in the Divine Mercy Novena starting on Good Friday after
the stations and continuing everyday following daily mass until Divine Mercy
Sunday on April 11th (except
for Easter Sunday which will be said independently). This is a very short

TO
THE BEREAVEMENT COMMITTEE I want to extend my appreciation to all the
workers who give their time making the receptions for the bereaved families so
successful and to all of the volunteers who give of their talent in providing
the food for the families. The existence of the Bereavement Committee is
dependent on all of you. The families we help always extend their appreciation
for your generosity, thoughtfulness and support during their difficult time.
They are so thankful that we can ease their load at this time. God
bless you, Carol Adams
