Greetings!

Spring is in the air! Birds are singing, flowers are blooming and children are outside playing ~ God's love is all around us! It truly is a gift to behold.

God’s love is infinite and incomprehensible. His love is infinite. He tells us in Psalm 103: For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him (11) God’s love is greater than we can even imagine. How high are the starry heavens above the earth? We will be amazed at his love forever and ever.

Have a beautiful week and please let the parish office know if there is anything we can do for you. God bless ~
