Mass on Sunday, October 3, 2021 at 10 A.M. COVID 19 precautions: vaccinations required and wearing of masks–other precautions are in place as well to keep all of us safe.

Afghan collections –my deep gratitude to all who contributed these last two weekends–we raised $860.00 and it has, or will be sent in two separate gifts to Catholic Charities and to the Salvation Army, both out of Lacrosse for the refugees at Camp McCoy and for their resettlement. When all, “is said and done,” the parish will have given $1360.00 due to a $500 gift the board had previously allocated from existing funds.

Dear Friends,

On this Respect Life Weekend, let us remember that “life” is present from the beginning to the end–life in so many ways!

Let us ponder this together this week.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy
