PILGRIMAGE TO FATIMA AND LOURDES: Deacon Nelson is excited to announce an upcoming meeting to gauge interest in organizing a pilgrimage to the sacred sites of Fatima and Lourdes. This journey offers a unique opportunity for spiritual growth, reflection, and connection with fellow travelers as we visit these significant locations known for their miraculous stories and deep-rooted faith. During this meeting, we will discuss the potential itinerary, logistics, and approximate costs associated with the pilgrimage. Your input and enthusiasm are vital in shaping this trip, so please come prepared to share your thoughts, ideas, and experience. Whether you are already familiar with these holy sites or are simply curious to learn more, I encourage you to join us. Please feel free to bring along anyone who may be interested in this pilgrimage too. The meeting will take place on Tuesday, May 6 at 6:30 PM in Resurrection Church Hall.
MOVIE NIGHT: Deacon Nelson will be hosting a "movie night" type program to watch TV series, The Chosen. It would run for 10 weeks (Season 1).

VETERANS’ PRAYER AND SUPPORT GROUP: Deacon Nelson will be hosting a Veterans’ prayer/support group. All Veterans are welcome. This will be a monthly gathering to pray and discuss Veteran's issues, e.g. help veterans find and locate resources, talk to their peers, network, etc. Hopefully, this can be a place where unchurched Vets might find their way to Christ and/or strengthen their existing relationships with Him. He will also be reaching out to the local VFWs, American Legions, CWVs, and all the Johnstown Parishes. The first group gathering is planned for Friday, May 9 at 6:30 PM.

THE 2025 CATHOLIC MINISTRIES DRIVE
Your sacrificial gifts of prayer and treasure will make an immediate impact on ministries that focus on evangelization, serving those in need and formation of our priests and deacons. During Lent, and throughout the year, we are challenged to renew our spiritual devotions and duties - and one of those holy duties is to support the Church. This year’s theme, “Follow Me” (Mt 16:24), invites us into a deeper relationship with Christ, as we share in His mission of love and service, proclaiming the Good News to all. There is no limit to what we can accomplish together in Christ. PLEASE MAIL YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS DIRECTLY TO THE DIOCESE OF ALTOONA/JOHNSTOWN or you may make an online gift at www.dioceseaj.org/giving. Our diocesan ministries need your support. All gifts received beyond the parish target amount will be used for your parish. The Target amounts for 2025 are: Resurrection Parish, $32,000.00 and St. Clare of Assisi Parish, $8,700.00.
May the glory and the promise
of this joyous time of year
bring peace and happiness
to you and those you hold most dear.
And may Christ, Our Risen Savior,
always be there by your side to bless you
most abundantly and be your loving guide. Amen.
Father George and the Staff
of Resurrection Parish
and St. Clare of Assisi Parish
would like to wish all the parishioners and their families and friends
a very Happy and Blessed Easter!
