Special Mass for Easter Flower Donations

Thank you to those who donated to help us buy Easter flowers! The church is beautiful and a fitting tribute to the joy and solemnity of the Risen Christ. There will be a special Mass offered for all of those named In Memory/Honor by which they may receive the graces from that infinite sacrifice. The Mass will be April 8 at 8am. Alleluia! He is risen!

OLD ST. PATRICK PARISH DIRECTORY

Knight of the Month Our Knight of the Month for

April is Deacon Frank Papp.

At their ordination, all deacons

receive the Book of Gospels

from the Bishop and are

commissioned to preach the

Good News. They also make

a solemn promise to pray the

Liturgy of the Hours for and with the People of

God. These two ministries are among the most

important ways I am able to serve our beautiful

parish. The good people of OSP are in my pray-

ers every day. As your parish deacon, it has

been my privilege to serve and to preach at

Holy Mass and to preside at baptisms,

weddings, scripture/prayer vigils, funerals, and

interments. Prayerful presence at the local

abortion clinic is an important witness (on

several occasions it was possible to bring the

Blessed Sacrament to those prayer vigils).

Together with my wife Barbara, we offer the

parish baptismal preparation class. When able,

serving our dear homebound is a crucial minis-

try. The deacon serves, ex officio, as a member

of the Parish Council, Worship Committee,

Parish Finance Committee, and the Pastoral

Team. Leading other special liturgies (Stations

of the Cross, Holy Saturday Blessing of Easter

Food, Office of Readings and Morning Prayer)

is a particular joy and honor. When called to do

so, articles for the parish bulletin are contribut-

ed. It is a particular blessing to be a parishioner

here at OSP — a community of brothers and

sisters dedicated to our Lord and His Mother

and who by the witness of their lives encourage

my faith. Thank you Deacon Papp for your

outstanding service to our Church. May God

Bless You.

Family of the Month The Perrydore Family

is our Family of the

Month for April. Gary

and Mary serve the

parish as sacristans,

Extraordinary

Ministers of Holy

Communion and

Gary lectors. They assist couples as they pre-

pare for the sacrament of marriage and coordi-

nate training and scheduling of Extraordinary

Ministers of Holy Communion and lectors. Mary

is a member of the worship committee while

Gary serves on the parish council. Tim is

involved with the OSP Youth Group and, along

with Nick, is an altar server. Maggie partici-

pates with American Heritage Girls. Gary

recently assisted with the Men's Into the

Breach Lenten series and the Confirmation

Retreat for the soon to be confirmed 8th

graders. God Bless You, Gary and your family

for your dedicated service to Old St. Patrick’s

Church.
