“This Holy Week will be unlike any other that I’ve ever celebrated and the same is true for you, too. Clearly, we’re going to miss the opportunity to be with so many people during the course of these holiest of days, but that doesn’t mean that we don’t have the opportunity to really look for ways to connect with God and connect with each other,” Bishop Zubik said. “This pandemic has limited us, but it has not and cannot limit what God can do for us through the power of His love and Grace.”
