Vicar's Voice Hello, everyone, After a busy Lenten season, Holy Week and Easter Day, the month of May brings a deserved reprieve. The Day of Pentecost will arrive on June 5th. So, during this in-between time, enjoy the beauty of Spring this month provides. For those who honor the significant days on the Church calendar, Ascension Day is Thursday, May 26th, but we will not have a service on that day. Still, I encourage you to hold the day in prayer and reflect on the meaning of Christ ascending to Heaven and rejoining the Holy Trinity following His resurrection. Faithfully, Fr. John Pastoral News Weekly Prayer List Please contact Fr. John to add someone in need of prayer to our weekly prayer list. He can be reached atjrunkle9@verizon.net or 919-260-2157. 19 |
