We wish to express our deepest gratitude for all our generous benefactors who contributed to our chapel renovation. The project is moving along very well, and we are nearing completion. Everything looked so lovely in the Chapel for the Easter liturgy. May the Lord bless you and your families for all that you do for the Lord and for us.

Pope Francis will make a pilgrimage to Fatima, Portugal for with 100th anniversary of the apparitions of Our Lady to the three children. The Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta from May 13, 1917 to October 13, 1917. The Pope will be in Fatima on May 12th and 13th at the invitation of the local bishop. Also, the Pope will be canonizing two of the children, Blessed Francisco and Jacinta, who died as children. Lucia joined a convent of Dorothean sisters and later became a Carmelite nun. She died on February 13, 2005. Her process towards canonization is in progress.
This year the solemnity of St. Joseph has been transferred to Monday, March 20th. Many saints have had a great devotion to him. Religious order have had a long history of experiencing the powerful intercession of St. Joseph whenever a spiritual or material need arose. One such example is the miraculous staircase in the former chapel of the Loretto Sisters in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Please read this amazing story.
The Dominican Friars featured us in their publication, Dominicana Journal, on March 4th. We are most grateful to them. Also, the Dominican Nuns in Summit, NJ very kindly put a link to the article on their Facebook page.
