Children celebrate their First Communion at Somerset s St. John of God
The Herald News
SOMERSET For generations, May has been a time for First Communions, devotions to Mary and other traditions in the Catholic church. As the area emerges from the pandemic, COVID has changed but not eliminated these and other festivities.
At St. John of God Church in Somerset, 28 children received the Eucharist for the first time on May 2. In order to accommodate families while ensure social distancing, two Masses were held, at 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.
“This is another joyous occasion of celebration for the parish of St. John of God continuing to live parish life as normal as possible following safety protocols to prevent the spread of COVID,” said the Rev. Jason Brilhante, parish administrator.

It hasn’t been easy picking the most … “exceptional” bishops. But I’ve narrowed the candidates down to three, out of many worthy contenders.

With so many “conservatives” and fainting-couch Christians tripping over themselves to shine the shoes of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, I’ve decided to launch a contest. The prize in contention? The coveted title of “Worst Person in America.”
Can Dr. Kermit Gosnell . . . Sing?
I’m not sure when we’ll hold the pageant. Ideally it should take place after Biden has pardoned rogue abortionist Kermit Gosnell . . . but before Biden sends him to Rome as U.S. ambassador to the Vatican. Then we have our “dream” host. (Note to self: Can Kermit sing? Must contact his agent.)
