St. Emeric Community

 One of our Renew My Church group members, Bernie Wiscons Hoffman, posted this on Facebook. Bernie, whether you or someone else from Infant Jesus of Prague made this video, KUDOS!!!This is a lot more difficult to do than it looks! She said I could share it with all of you. Bernie posted this on the evening before the Triduum began, and said 

'A loving prayer shared from your friends at IJP....hoping all are well'



POST FROM OUR RENEW MY CHURCH FACEBOOK GROUP

     This is a post I wanted to share wit those who aren't on Facebook. It is from Leslie Morse Dudley.
'A year ago on Holy Thursday evening, we journeyed together to visit and pray at each of our churches. I will always remember the warmth and generosity of St. Anne’s, the quiet stillness and prayerfulness of St. Lawrence, the beautiful garden of repose at St. Emeric, the candlelight of IJP, and the touching prayers and benediction from Fr. Bob at St. Joseph where we concluded the evening. Although we cannot be together tonight, please remember each other in prayer this Holy Thursday, and as we journey together through these days to Easter.
