Resurrexit sicut dixit! He has risen as He said!

It was a glorious Holy Week here in Catholic Peekskill.  The Lord's Supper and the washing of the Disciples Feet. Good Friday services including the Live Way of the Cross in DePew Park culminating with the Easter Vigil and the celebration of the Sacraments of Initiation.  Here are some photos to share the joy the Lord's resurrection!
