Please attend Mass this weekend with your Parish Priest. "I am
the good shepherd, says the Lord; I know my sheep, and mine know Me.'--John 10
The virtue for the month of May is "Love" ('Love me as I have
loved you.') Love is selfless and giving. It means giving to others those
things you would want given to you--and it's done knowing it may not be
returned. Christian love is shown in our respect, our mercy, and our charity
toward others. Virtue mass: 2nd grade, Friday, May 11, 8:15 A.M.
