But though the words are simple, hope you know the gratitude and the special warmth they represent. I appreciate your kindness and generosity in supporting my ministry. I keep thanking Jesus for the gift of your presence in my life and for giving me an opportunity to preach this Mission. I thank Father Hilary for his invitation. I wish you and your family a Happy and Holy Easter; May the Joy of the Risen Lord be with all of you. God bless always, Rev. Msgr. Leslie F. Shenoy
