Congratulations and many blessings to our newly-baptized adults who received the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist) on Sunday, July 26, 2020 at 9:00 AM at the Richeyville Mission Church with Reverened Edward L. Yuhas (Pastor) conferring. Mike Zekir, Jr. and his uncle, Tom Zekir, have been preparing throughout the last year through formation in the RCIA process (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults).
Although traditionally celebrated each year at the Easter Vigil, the opportunity to celebrate these Easter Sacraments had been postponed in parishes all around the world, until a more suitable time could be determined by our bishops and pastors amid the COVID-19 crisis and restrictions. Please continue to keep Mike and Tom and all recently initiated new Catholics in our prayers.
