Interactive Stations of the Cross for RE students and their families
"Ow, it hurts!" On Wed. March 7, our middle school RE students helped to lead other RE students and their families through an interactive Stations of the Cross. Students could wear a Crown of Thorns, and carry a Cross. Also, students could stumble and fall into beds of rock. Students were also given a nail representing those used when Jesus was Nailed to the Cross. The middle school hosts were all well prepared to help families have a meaningful experience recreating Jesus's Way of the Cross. |

Risen Christ 50th Anniversary Celebration
Holy Family Chapel Artwork
On Aug. 20, 2017, we celebrated our parish’s 50th anniversary. In honor of the event, we have made a few changes to our look. We commissioned new artwork for the Holy Family Chapel, which was blessed by Archbishop Aquila after the 11:00 Mass on Sunday. The Holy Family sculpture has been relocated to the rotunda in the parish center.

Anniversary Mass
The 50th anniversary of Risen Christ Catholic Parish was celebrated at the 11:00 a.m. Mass on Aug. 20, 2017. Mass was celebrated by Archbishop Samuel Aquila, and concelebrated by our pastor, Rev. Msgr. J. Anthony McDaid. Additionally, we had several priests who had previously been assigned to our parish, come to concelebrate. We were honored to have with us Rev. Msgr. Kenneth Leone, Rev. Felix Medina, Rev.. John Krenzke, Rev. James Kleiner, and Rev. J. Daniel Schaffer. Assisting at the Mass were our deacons, Tim Unger and Mark Salvato. The Knights of Columbus provided an Honor Guard. At the end of Mass, original parishioners from 1967 were asked to stand, and were thanked for their contributions to the establishment of the parish. Following the Mass, Archbishop Aquila blessed the new artwork in our Holy Family Chapel. Following Mass, parishioners were invited to the gym for a light rececption. Display walls presented a look at the parish throughout the decades, as well as drawings depicting architectural possibilities for the future of the sanctuary. These displays will be left up in the parish hall until August 28 for all parishioners to have the opportunity to view them. The Holy Family Chapel artwork was painted by parishioner Gerry Mulowayi, who was available to talk about his art. Additional pieces of his art, which usually hang in the Youth Room, were brought down for display. |
