VISITING PRIEST CELEBRANT & FR. SIMON CON-CELEBRATING
Fr. David Axtmann (retired in Highmore) will be the celebrant this weekend and next weekend with me con-celebrating. He will be offering confessions before all of the Masses. We welcome Fr. David!

PALM SUNDAY MASSES NEXT SUNDAY
Next weekend, there will not be any confessions before weekend Masses. Fifteen minutes before each Mass, Altar servers need to be robed and ready for instructions. We will begin with palm processions.

BEGINNING & EXISTING ALTAR SERVERS I trained existing and new Altar servers. Since there are significant differences in the previous ways, all Altar servers are required to have training. If any existing Altar servers still need training, please let the parish secretaries know. I will be having Altar server training before all of the Holy Week special liturgies.
