Announcements
Bright Week
Christ is Risen! Indeed He is Risen! Christós voskrése! Vo-ístinu voskrése! May the risen Christ bestow peace, health and happiness in this joyous season to all men, women & children of the world; especially St. Athanasius parishioners, guests, friends, neighbors and acquaintances. Our renewed spirit, honed by our diligence during the Great Fast, will continue to strengthen us to spread the Good News of Christ’s victory over Satan. Let us go forth and proclaim to others the truth of the Catholic faith through both word and deed – it’s God’s directive. As Fr. Sid has stated, “We have a good God.” Sow plenty of positive, optimistic seed to all, every day, so that we can foster an upbeat and encouraging community in which we live. As we do for others, we do for ourselves. God has made it a win-win solution!
Food Pantry
Our ministry to our local neighbors has had a gratifying week with at least 8 families receiving assistance from our parish in the last few days. To meet the continuing need we are requesting non-perishable food and hygiene items (or money to purchase them) from you. During the Great Fast almsgiving is highlighted as a virtuous activity. Now that the Pascal season is started we need to continue donating to the poor. The St. Athanasius Church food pantry is one such outlet. Please be generous in this important ministry to those in need.
Easter Bake Goods
Thanks to those who helped with baking on Thursday, April 1 (no fooling!): Brenda, Al, Olga, Paul, Mary, Joe, Julia, Bill, Richard, Marge. You can still get baked goods (rolls, pascha bread and pumpkin logs) for your family, co-workers and/or friends. They are a special treat that is sure to please.
