Maureen and I went to
Assumption Parish on Sunday. What a beautiful church. What a beautiful service. Simple. No singing. Good short homily. The priest said this:
"Jesus has sweet words for us...come to me all who are burdened...the Mass is the source and summit of our life...the Eucharist was all taken away from us. All the signs of our fruits, our buildings were closed...not only should be open our churches...the government would not even consider them essential services...we must open our hearts...if we find it burdensome Jesus asks us to come to Him...my God and my all"
And the church has a crucifix. Amen to that.
We love this parish My wife's parents O'Neill's were one of the orginal parishiors when this church was build for the mostly Irish English in Eastview in 1940. Since we were married in this church June 16 1951 and have attended and served most of our 69 years of marrage in Assumption of The Blessed Virgin Mary Parish .Our three Chidren attented here also our son Christopher was married here in 1978 and our daughter in 1983 Re the Crucifx it was also made by a parishioner
