Requiem Aeternam, dona eis, Domine

"Grant them eternal rest, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them" is the Introit for the Requiem Mass and a prayer for those souls who have gone before us. May the Lord welcome Bill into his heavenly kingdom, and may he comfort those who grieve him. 

Kathy has done so much in the little time I have been here to welcome, encourage, and serve not only our schola but the entire parish; and I thank her for her dedication and appreciation. Let us always keep her and Heather in our prayers. May the beautiful setting of "In Paradisum" by Gabriel Faure remind all of us of the hope of Heaven which Christ has made possible for every individual.


"May the love of Christ which surpasses all understanding guard your hearts and minds in Christ name" - St. Paul
