In many Eastern European countries, it’s a tradi­tion to have a basket of food blessed on Holy Saturday. This Catholic ritual has been cherished for centuries among many families. Fr. John will bless baskets Saturday, April 19th at 11:00 am (after the egg hunt).

Join us Saturday, April 19th, for the annual Easter Egg Hunt, starting at 10am sharp! All children (crawlers to age 10) and their parents should gather in the parish hall at 9:45am. Bring your own baskets or bags to collect the eggs. Sponsored by the Ladies of St. Matthew.
