Archbishop Edwin O’Brien credits efforts at parish level for 1,090 new members
William J. Huller has been attending Mass with his wife for more than a half-century. The Catonsville man drove their six children to catechism classes and celebrated as they advanced through the sacraments of the church.
“It’ll be a change,” he said before the Easter Vigil Mass at St. Gabriel in Woodlawn, where he finally was confirmed into the church into which he had married and raised his family. “It’s kind of a new experience for me.”
Huller was one of 1,090 adults who were set to join the church at Masses throughout the Archdiocese of Baltimore, establishing a new record for the local church for the second straight year.
