CALLING ALL MOTHERS: We are

starting a community of moms. Our

mission is to build a community of mothers

who strengthen their faith for the benefit of

family and self. With The Blessed Mother as our guide, we will

focus on spirituality, fellowship and service through prayer,

activities and community/parish involvement. If interested contact

Melissa King at 582-9885 or Jena Deaver at 308-991-3527 or

saintcmoms@yahoo.com. The first meeting will be in April to

discuss needs and planning.

In Memory of Ron & Marge Larson blue bags were

donated as a tangible reminder to participate in our parish food drive. On the last weekend of each month, you are invited to take a bag from the back of church, fill it with non-perishable food items and bring it back to church the first weekend of the month. The food donated will be transported to one of our community food banks. Please join in our parish effort to respond to the growing need of those facing hunger in our community.

Dear Parishioners,

Today we celebrate Palm Sunday, the day in which we

commemorate Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. There is a

lot going on with this day as we begin Holy Week. Jesus’ entry has

many overtones to the Messiah’s entry. The coming events this

week play into the story of salvation.

I encourage everyone to take part in as much of the events of

Holy Week as possible. If you want to get the most out of Easter,

go to Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Vigil. Make all of

Holy Week a part so that Easter can take on its fullest picture. It

begins today. May we keep the events of Holy Week close to us as

we come closer to the joy of Easter and the Resurrection.

God Bless,

Fr. Davis

Rosary Monday thru Thursday at 8:30 am

and Adoration from 9:30 am to 10:00 am.

Fridays Adoration beginning at 7:30 am

and lasting until 9:00 am Mass.

Six days before the Passover, when the Lord came

into the city of Jerusalem, the children ran to

meet him; in their hands they carried palm

branches and with a loud voice cried out: Hosanna

in the Highest!

Blessed are you, who have come in your abundant

mercy! O gates, lift high your heads; grow higher,

ancient doors. Let him enter, the king of glory!

Who is this king of glory? He, the Lord of hosts,

he is the king of glory, Hosanna in the highest!

Blessed are you, who have come in your abundant

mercy!

Cf.John 12:1, 12-13; Psalm 24
