As we continue our Lenten journey towards Easter, we are reminded of those Old Testament Hebrews who were led through the desert by Moses. They endured many hardships on their way to the Promised Land. Our Church today is also a pilgrim people of God, led by Jesus to an even greater Promised Land. Let’s especially welcome and pray for those in our parishes who are preparing to join their journey to ours by receiving the Sacraments of Initiation this Easter.                Fr John
