We rejoice this Easter season when we witness how the message of Hope blooms forth again in the lives of so many who recall the comforting and life-given presence of Christ in their midst.

May we all we live as hope-filled people. May we awaken to the many ways we are gifted with hope and sent forth to free the oppressed and bring new life with God promise to give us a future filled with HOPE. (Jer. 29;11)

May the blessing of light be on you, light without and light within.

In some ways the world feels so full of tragedy. We grieve as we see so much cruelty, and struggle in countries everywhere. If we ever need a Lenten season it seems now is the time. Time for each of us to reflect on the mercy of God for all people. Time to pray that God’s ways reign and bless all people, especially those who are suffering all around the world.

Sister Mary Ann Zrust passed away on January 23, 2026 and after 96 years is enjoying eternal life. She prepared the following autobiography to share her life’s story.

We celebrate this New Year as time to remember the gracious gifts of God and look for ways God will appear in the future.

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.  John  3: 16
