Easter
“So it is written that the Christ would suffer and on the third day rise from the dead” – Luke 24:46
Welcome to Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church
We are a group of people bound together by our belief in Jesus Christ. Through our baptism, we are called to share in His work. Therefore we pledge ourselves through the ideal of shared ministry to build a community where all are welcomed, loved, needed and appreciated; to celebrate the gift of life together in word and sacrament; and to promote justice, peace and equality for all people.
- Our Lady of Victory Mission Statement
From Monsignor Romano Ciotola
Once again, we thank all those who made the celebration of the Birth of the Savior and the Feast of the Motherhood of the Virgin Mary on New Year’s Day such a joyful one. We thank the choir, those who decorated the church so nicely, the Servers, Lectors, Ushers, Eucharistic Ministers, and parishioners involved in outreach ministries to our shut-ins and needy.
Carol Ann Bradley, the Parish Music Director-Organist will be away from the weekend of January 7/8 through the weekend of January 22/23; Carol Ann will undergo foot surgery as an outpatient. We assure Carol Ann of our prayers. Debbie Franz, our music intern from Trinity Lutheran Seminary, will direct the choir as well as Thursday evening and Sunday morning rehearsals. We welcome Debbie as the Parish music intern and thank her for the wonderful work she is doing with the Parish choir and the music program for children.
