A bright spot in the darkness of the COVID-19 virus was the opportunity to receive Linda Anderson into the Catholic Church at the “private” Mass I celebrated on Monday, March 23rd. Linda also received the Sacrament of Confirmation and received her First Holy Communion at this same Mass.
Interestingly, a number of months ago Linda brought me a statue of the infant Jesus that she found many years ago at a garage sale. It was a large one (about 18 inches) and had it stored in her garage until she found a good home for it. After forgetting about it for a number of years, she found it & decided it needed a good home so she brought it to us. We had it in front of the altar for Christmas, 2019, surrounded by candles and poinsettias. We are grateful that Linda gave it to us where it has found a good home.
We welcome Linda (whose Confirmation name is Mary) and we thank Mania Komm for being her sponsor.
