Join us! We’re so looking forward to being altogether again! Our dear brother in Christ, Michael, was finally laid to rest after nearly two months after his death. Our sadness was mitigated by the knowledge that in the last days of his life Michael was able to clearly request that he be baptized. Father Paul was able to fulfill his wish, mere moments before EMS came to take him to hospital. We miss him sorely and pray to God that we will one day meet again where the bitter things of this life no longer encumber us. We love him and commend him to our God. May his memory be eternal! |
