Brian and Cyndy Fuhro, parishioners and a Knight and Dame of the Order of Malta, will be traveling to Lourdes, France on the 38th Annual Lourdes Pilgrimage “Hope Through the Virtue of Union with Mary” from April 28 to May 4, 2025.

The intensions will be hand delivered to the grotto of Massabielle where the Blessed Mother appeared 18 times before Bernadette Soubirous (now Saint Bernadette), a 14-year-old peasant girl. Thank you and God bless you Brian and Cyndy, safe travels.

God reveals Himself in different ways. Where can I find Him today in my Lenten journey? We observe practices of prayer, sacrifice and good works. He summons us to come closer. Remove whatever obstacles that get in our way to be with the Lord. I am called to live this Lent in new and deeper ways. Lenten Reflection: Here I am Lord.
