I am very grateful that Bishop O’Connell has selected our parish for this celebration, since St. Robert Bellarmine parish was established in the early years after the Vatican Council which set forth the principals upon which this parish was established. I hope many will come to the 4:30 Mass on Saturday, 4/26th
