We fear dying. When our securities and familiarities are threatened, the anxiety of uncertainty can lead us into fear and despair. We have difficulty believing that new life comes from death.

Through his passion and death, Jesus opens up the THANK YOU RCIA possibility for new life and new beginnings for all believers. for providing one "Unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains of our Lenten just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit." As Suppers! our journey of Lent hastens to an end, the mystery of Christ's passion and death come before us to teach us valuable lessons Please pray for vocations and both for this life and the next. support our Seminarians.
