Celebrations whi inate in GB
By Roberta Walker
GRAND BEND - Holy Week
celebrations culminate in the most
sacred feast of the liturgical cycle
of the Roman Catholic Church,
with Easter Sunday.
On Palm Sunday, the choir and
altar attendants marched into
church with blessed palms, to com-
memorate Christ's triumphal entry
into Jerusalem. Soloist Roberta
Walker performed "The Holy City"
and the Children's choir sang "I
Will Never Forget You", accompa-
nied by three guitarists, directed by
Dolores Tighe.
On Holy Thursday, April 8, the
church gathered to remember the
Eucharistic offering of the Last
Supper, and as a sign of service to
others. Father Beck washed the feet
of 12 men from the parish.
On Good Friday, parishioners
came to mourn the Passion and
Death of Christ with readings,
chanted psalms, Veneration of the
Cross and Holy Communion.
Walker sang "It is Finished", a ca-
pella, as there is no organ music
from Good Friday to the "Gloria"
of Easter Vigil.
During the Easter Sunday servic-
es the children's choir sang "Here I
Am Lord" and "I Will Never Forget
You". The organist is Robert Van-
dersteen, and choir director/
guitarist is Dolores Tighe. Wendy

bra will auend the 11 a.m. Mass
and go to the Alhambra Hall for a
Communion Breakfast. This Frater-
nal Order of Catholic Men is dedi-
cated to helping those people in our
community who are developmen-
tally handicapped, both adults and
alskkkOn. Recently they donated
over $2,000 toward the purchase of
an electric wheelchair for a young
men in Exeter, and over $800 for
the purchase of a projector, screen
