Hi everyone. I am going to try and be on here more but a lot is going on. Good grief I just got the Holy Week schedule of services, and, as usual, I am not even going to be able to catch a breath some days. I am a Reader, so I will be very busy. Please say a prayer for all clergy, minor, and major during Holy Week because it is very taxing on all of us. Here are the readings for the day.
