OUR OFFICE WILL BE CLOSED THURSDAY MAY 14TH
IN OBSERVANCE OF ASCENSION THURSDAY
Message From the Director
Dear Friends,
May Christ’s Peace be with you always!
As we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord we enter once again into the mystery of Christ returning to the Father-yet not leaving us behind. His Ascension is not an absence but a promise: “I am with you always, even to the end of time.” In this moment of holy expectation, we stand with Mary, the Mother of Jesus, just as the Apostles did in the Upper Room. She gathers us, strengthens us, and teaches us how to wait in faith.
In these days leading to Pentecost, we unite our hearts with hers in prayer for a renewed outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon our Association, our families and the whole Church. Mary, the Mother of the Church, shows us how to receive the fire of divine love and how to carry it into the world with courage and tenderness.
May this sacred time deepen our devotion, strengthen our unity and rekindle our mission to bring Christ to others through the example and intercession of His Mother.
Come Holy Spirit. Come through the Heart of Mary.
In Mary Immaculate,
Executive Director

We invite you to make a lasting memorial gift to this fund. You are not only remembering Father O’Brien’s life and dedication to the Vincentian mission, but ensuring that his positive impact continues for years to come.

“We must honor Mary as the one who was preserved from sin, who was perfectly faithful to grace and who teaches us to say with her: “Be it done unto me according to your word.” ~ St. Vincent de Paul
