I have to admit, today was one long day.  I normally do not do too much on Holy Saturday other than to contemplate the happenings of Holy Week and to prepare for Easter Sunday.  In the beginning of my ministry I would do Easter Vigils on Saturday, but they gave way to VERY early ones on Sunday mornings, so that the Vigil would end with the sunrise and we would celebrate the first Eucharist of Easter as the sun came up.  Vigils were often times for baptisms, but even that gave way to doing them in the main Easter Day service.  (I figured if I had so many people who only came twice a year that I might as well keep them a little longer)

Today however, Father PT, Deacon Kim, and I went up to some ordinations in Fort Wayne.  One deacon and one priest were ordained and they both are great guys.  It was a real blessing.  But with all the stuff I have been doing, I got a bit behind with all I had to do.  I do believe, now at 10:30, that I am caught up……but only tomorrow morning will tell.

But for tonight, my prayers go out for all of you.  There are good churches open tomorrow all around you with good people waiting to walk with you in faith.

Tomorrow we celebrate the biggest victory of all!  Come celebrate it with us and join us tomorrow in Church!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
