Dear St. Genevieve<\/span>–<\/span>St. Maurice Parishioners,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
We all have our own prayers that we say, especially during the Lenten Season, to ready our hearts, minds and spirits for <\/span>Christ’s Passion, Death and Resurrection but we also give up certain things too. We make special times for prayer and sac<\/span>rifices to help ourselves and others find that spirit of holiness in our hearts to receive Christ in all His resurrected glor<\/span>y o<\/span>n <\/span>Easter Sunday. Then in God’s great kindness, He gives us Divine Mercy Sunday, another opportunity to praise God for <\/span>His Love for us. <\/span><\/div>\n
Sometimes we are asked to step out of our comfort zone and that is not ever an easy choice to make. This year, many of <\/span>you did make that choice and took part in the Living Stations of the Cross, others spent extra time rehearsing a lot of chal<\/span>lenging music for the liturgies and still others found themselves getting costumes ready, organizing music or other unfa<\/span>miliar but necessary tasks. There’s a saying, “it takes a village….” that’s true in many cases. This year, it took a very <\/span>sp<\/span>e<\/span>cial “village”… it took the people of St. Genevieve<\/span>–<\/span>St. Maurice Parish to make this 2022 Lent, Holy Triduum and Divine <\/span>Mercy Sunday a most spiritually fulfilling and loving expression of Christian faith, hope and joy. Thank you all for giving <\/span>of yourselves so willingly, so generously and so lovingly. It’s a joy to work and pray with you each week and I thank God <\/span>for blessing me with your kind support and friendship. <\/span><\/div>\n
Yours in Christ, <\/span><\/div>\n

Pat Knorp, Music Minister<\/span><\/p>\n
