  • Easter Blessing from Fr. Chris
    April 19, 2014
    This Easter brings very special blessings for me since the Cardinal has officially appointed me as the Pastor of the St. Mary's and St. Helen's Collaborative. I look forward to both churches worshiping together often and sharing resources as is the hope of the mission. Thank you for the wonderful way we celebrated the Triduum together and I ask God to bless St. Helen's and St. Mary's churches and our one collaborative family. May the joy of the Risen Lord reign in our future.
