It was wonderful to see a sea of blue at our 12:15 pm Mass Friday. The St. Peter’s Goderich CWL had requested a Mass for Our Lady of Good Counsel and it was beautiful to see so many of their members present and serving at the Mass. They do much for our parish …we are blessed! Special thanks to Father Tom for a spiritually nourishing homily!
Easter Vigil at St. Boniface
The Easter Vigil begins between sunset on Holy Saturday and sunrise on Easter Sunday outside the church, where a new fire is lit. This fire, often an outdoor fire, is used to light the Paschal Candle, which is then used to light the darkened church, and the candles of the congregation. Each year on Holy Saturday during the Easter Vigil, thousands are welcomed into the Roman Catholic Church by Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist. Our Family of Parishes welcomed three such catechumens. Five other’s received Confirmation and Eucharist. All 8 names are found in the April 20th-April 27th bulletin.
