We would like to extend our congratulations to our newly baptized and newly professed Catholics who came into the Church during the celebration of the Easter Vigil over the weekend. John Lee, Michael Stollonwerk, and Daniel Wiley received all three of the sacraments of initiation: Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Eucharist. Blake Hillerson, Stephanie (mother), Noah (son), and Claire (daughter), Laurey, Alycia Johnson, Susan Neuville, and Amelia Rockwood, all made their Profession of Faith in the Catholic Church, were Confirmed and received their First Holy Communion at the Easter Vigil. And as a special gift, Elijah Wiley, son of Daniel and Stefani Wiley, along with Will Neuville, son of Susan and John Wiley, were both baptized during the Vigil that saw their parents come into the Catholic Church. We commend these faithful candidates and their generous sponsors for steadfastly participating in the eightmonth RCIA process of coming into the Church.
