Clare's First Easter!!!

Lent and the Easter season is our favorite time of year. We are so thankful that God sent his Son to live among us and to die so that our sins may be forgiven! He is risen!!! Clare has eagerly participated in this holy season. She received ashes on Ash Wednesday, abstained from meat on Fridays, prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet and Rosary, attended Mass on Holy Thursday, communion and veneration of the cross on Good Friday, and the 3-hour Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday. She was able to witness the baptism of 5 people, and we explained to her that she too would be baptized soon. Thank you God for guiding us as we help Clare learn more about you and your Church!!
