See attached list for Easter Ceremonies here at St John's Cathedral

Hosanna to the King of Kings.

As we approach Easter we see more clearly what Jesus Christ has done for us in his death and rising.

Sinners and outcasts are at ease with Jesus, the story of the prodigal son tells us why.

Pope Francis will consecrate Ukraine and Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary on Friday, March 25.

The ceremony will take place in St. Peter’s Basilica during the Celebration of Penance at which Pope Francis will preside. The Holy Father has invited bishops throughout the world to join in the act of consecration. Bishop Brendan will preside at the weekly Lenten Stations of the Cross in the Cathedral this Friday at 5.15 pm during which he will lead us in the prayer of consecration of Ukraine and Russia to Our Blessed Mother.  Pray for peace.

Bishop Leahy - The commitment to Ukraine in terms of giving and prayer, must continue. The light of hope will ultimately overcome darkness. Just as the Lenten experience.”

Maybe this brief glimpse of Jesus in all his glory is also meant for us today. Perhaps we too need to be encouraged and strengthened by Jesus, especially as we continue our journey through Lent.
