Dear Parishioners,
Today, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension, when Jesus having risen from the dead and appeared to His disciples with His gift of peace and His command to preach to all the nations, ascended to Heaven to be with Father forever. The portion of Jesus’ mission which necessitated His physical presence here on earth had ended, but the mission was far from over. The mission of Jesus was first entrusted to His disciples, then in turn to every baptized Christian. Do you consider yourself a part of the mission of Jesus?
Monday, May 30th is Memorial Day. On this day we remember the members of the armed forces who have died fighting for our freedom. On this day, let us take a few minutes to pray for those members of the armed forces who are no longer with us.
On Sunday, June 5th , a farewell reception will be held for Deacon Richard and Diane Abbondante, after the 11:00 A.M. Mass. All parishioners are invited to attend. Deacon Richard has been assigned to St. Peter Parish for ten (10) years. I thank Deacon Richard and his wife Diane for enriching the faith life of St. Peter Parish. I wish he and Diane well as they transition to living in Baton Rouge.
Have a Blessed Week!
