Good People of Communion,

Good News. All our first communion students have made their first communion. Here is a note about class times from our great 1st communion coordinator and teacher.
"There has been a slight change. The original class was April 20th but due to spring vacation, we are moving it up to April 13. Fr. Jeremy will be joining us in the chapel. The children will have a chance to see and possibly taste the bread. We will also show the tabernacle, candle, altar, etc., if time permits. Pls come at 9am on April 13. Thanks!

Cheryl Johnston"

I also would like to thank Rick Johnson, Anne Folkhard, and Angela Chistoffels for their help with the class.

Penultimately, I would like to say that their is a Photographer coming on June 1st at 9:30 a.m. before the celebration of this years First Communion celebration at the 10:30 Mass. The company contact information can be found at www.coffeepond.com. Their other contact information can be found their as well. If you want to order aditional prints they have asked that you simply contact them directly and they will be happy to let you know how to purchase prints of different sizes and quantities. The parish will be providing each communicant with 1 group photo and 1 individual photo. These photos you don't need to ask for. They will be delivered to the rectory, several weeks after 1st Communion. That is all part of the contract.

Finally we have even more news of grace and blessing. Seminarian Shawn Carey is being sent to work this summer for the Deaf Catholic Ministries Office of the Archdiocese of Boston, the office I coordinate and which serves the Deaf Catholic Community at Sacred Heart and throughout the Archdiocese. He is studying to be a priest for the Archdiocese and is a son of the Parish at Sacred Heart as this parish has become the home for the Deaf Catholic Community by adoption some few years back. We give glory to God that one of our own sons is well on his way to becoming a servant of the Eucharist; a minister of communion for us; an separated instrument of God's love here on earth. Let us thank God in our prayers and pray for his happiness.

In Christ,

Fr. St. Martin

Sincerely in Christ,
