Confirmation, Ascension, and VII Easter

This Wednesday at 6 PM is the Vigil Mass of the Ascension of the Lord.  Confirmation is also being administered by Bishop Thomas J. Tobin at this Mass.  Yes, this fulfills the Holy Day of Obligation.  The Thursday Masses (the Day of Ascension) are at 9 AM and 7 PM.

Our brass trio will be on hand for the Confirmation Mass.
