“The impious in heart lay up anger; they do not cry for help when he binds them…” (Job 36:13)
Will I cry for help to my creator when the abyss of hell pulls at me to enter its eternal darkness or will my anger and pride keep me silent, sealing my faith forever?

Lent Means Baby Shower at St. Thomas
St. Thomas Aquinas parish in Flatlands put on a great big baby shower benefiting the Bridge for Life and the Sisters of Life. The Confirmation students gave out the tags and bottles during Lent asking the parishioners to participate in this year’s Lenten project. They were also the servers at the baby shower. The knitting club made more than 100 blankets and hats.
