At the 11:00 am
service on the Sunday after Easter, with sunlight streaming through
the stained glass windows, Holy Angels worshippers were treated
to another School Children's mass. This liturgy was particularly
festive, falling within the "Eastertide". Principal, Sr.
Gerry O'Laughlin, along with Sr. Christine Nantaba, Mr. Michael
Joseph, and Ms. Barbara Walters assisted. Music was provided by
the Holy Angels School Children's Choir, always a very special gift.
And school children served in other ministry roles such as commentator
and readers, giving polished and forceful renditions of scripture.
Father Taylor continued
his Easter 2006 theme of discovering how we are "church"
in response to Christ's resurrection, this day's message including
the story of "doubting Thomas". One special feature included
sprinkling of the congregation with the blessed water used throughout
the coming year. Also (not pictured), adult Eucharistic ministers
were commissioned on this day.
While all are welcome
to worship with us at any time, these School Children's Masses are
especially rewarding, as school children, parents, and staff join
Holy Angels congregation as one family in worship.
