A Message From Father Alan
Dear Members of the Pelican Valley ACC,

   Alleluia He is risen. Happy Easter everyone! Death and darkness are shattered by the Easter resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. The risen Lord brings gifts of Easter peace and forgiveness to the world. Our faith filled presence at the Easter celebration testifies to the resurrection as well as do all the ways that we find to be Easter agents of peace and reconciliation. We continue to pray for the light of Christ's resurrection to shine upon all those dark places in the world and in human hearts that have desperate need of hope and healing. "Christ who dies no more, bring new life to our world!" 

   Many thanks to all who have helped us to meaningfully celebrate Holy Week and now the joy of Easter. We are grateful for all who lend beauty and grace to our churches and our liturgies, ministering in so many ways. Thanks to all who have filled our church pews and joined in worship; now we must take the Good News of Easter to all the people in our lives and the world around us. The resurrection gives us new life and hope in the midst of whatever is happening around us and even within us. Congratulations to all who have celebrated special sacraments this Easter, especially our newly baptized, Michelle Fyhrie and new members Cooper Ernst, Eden Johnson, Debra Jacobs-Beyer, and Nicole Johnson. We look forward to more celebrations of Baptism, First Communions, and Confirmations and all the ways that the Risen Christ will share His life with us throughout the Easter Season.


A blessed and happy Easter everyone!

Fr. Alan and Fr. Lucho and our ACC Staff

Estimados miembros del ACC de Pelican Valley:

   ¡Aleluya! ¡Él ha resucitado! ¡Felices Pascuas a todos! La muerte y la oscuridad han sido vencidas por la resurrección de Jesucristo de entre los muertos en esta Pascua. El Señor resucitado trae al mundo los dones de la paz y el perdón pascuales. Nuestra presencia llena de fe en la celebración de la Pascua da testimonio de la resurrección, al igual que lo hacen todas las formas en que encontramos para ser agentes de paz y reconciliación en esta temporada. Seguimos rezando para que la luz de la resurrección de Cristo ilumine todos esos lugares oscuros del mundo y de los corazones humanos que tienen una necesidad desesperada de esperanza y sanación. «¡Cristo, que ya no muere, trae nueva vida a nuestro mundo!»

   Muchas gracias a todos los que nos han ayudado a celebrar de manera significativa la Semana Santa y, ahora, la alegría de la Pascua. Estamos agradecidos con todos aquellos que aportan belleza y gracia a nuestras iglesias y a nuestras liturgias, sirviendo de tantas maneras distintas. Gracias a todos los que han llenado los bancos de nuestra iglesia y se han unido a la adoración; ahora debemos llevar la Buena Nueva de la Pascua a todas las personas de nuestras vidas y al mundo que nos rodea. La resurrección nos otorga nueva vida y esperanza en medio de cualquier circunstancia que ocurra a nuestro alrededor e incluso dentro de nosotros mismos. ¡Felicidades a todos los que han celebrado sacramentos especiales en esta Pascua, especialmente a nuestra recién bautizada, Michelle Fyhrie, y a los nuevos miembros: Cooper Ernst, Eden Johnson, Debra Jacob’s-Beyer y Nicole Johnson! Esperamos con ilusión más celebraciones de Bautismos, Primeras Comuniones y Confirmaciones, así como todas las formas en que Cristo Resucitado compartirá Su vida con nosotros a lo largo del Tiempo Pascual.


¡Una Pascua bendecida y feliz para todos!

P. Alan, P. Lucho y nuestro equipo de la ACC
