THOUGHT FOR THE MONTH
As we celebrate the Baptism of the Lord this month, we need to recall our own Baptisms. We have all received the call to go and baptize all nations. Please pray for those in our RCIA program who will be baptized at the Easter Vigil this year. If there is someone you think would like to explore what Baptism in the Catholic Faith means, ask him or her to call the church rectory at 625-6409. -

Welcome - Rectory Office Hours: 8AM-4PM, Monday-Thursday 603-625-6409
It is the most basic desire within the human heart to search for lasting peace and happiness. In response to this desire Jesus says: “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light” (Matt 11:28-30). If we turn to Jesus without hesitations or reservations He will give us that “peace that surpasses all understanding” (Phil 4:7), the peace we desire.
St. Anthony of Padua Parish, where the French tradition will always be part of the fabric of our community, is wholly committed to bringing Christ to whoever seeks Him. This happens primarily in the sacraments, but also in fellowship, in Scripture studies, and other group meetings. Join us as we throw open the doors to Christ and allow Him to “give us rest.”
