We Celebrate Pentecost!

This weekend, we celebrated Pentecost, the coming of the Holy Spirit, and the birth of the Church. Let us never forget that the Holy Spirit walks with us!

Come Holy Spirit,
fill the hearts of your faithful and
kindle in them the fire of your love!
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created.
And You shall renew the face of the earth.

On June 1, we will welcome our new Pastor, Father Paul Aveni, from Our Lady of the Assumption in Marshfield. Fr. Aveni has many ties to Billerica and is excited to be back in the Merrimack Valley.

Please say hello and introduce yourselves when you see him after Mass. We look forward to continuing to grow under the guidance of Father Aveni.
