There's a new spirit here. Numerous people mention it. We can feel it. People linger more after Mass to talk and visit. More families are arriving and asking for children to be baptized. The number of parishioners volunteering has shot up. You are noting that some old faces have returned. That's a blessing of God's grace that despite the year's headlines, we are growing. At Easter, four people will be entering the Church. Marvelous!
Continue this trend by gently inviting friends or family who have filtered away. Tell them of the music that soars, of homilies that seek to be biblically based and encouraging, share with them the Children's Liturgy and our thriving Bible Study. Things are happening because of you and the Holy Spirit.
Share that life with other people... who are missing out.
