• Mass on Sunday, 12-31-23 at 10 A.M.
• SAVE THE DATE: Saturday, January 20, 2024 our monthly Saturday Mass at 4:30 P. M. We had talked about having a pot-luck after this Mass to welcome in the New Year. Let me know of your ability and desire to attend. 
• At year’s end, I wish to express my gratitude to our parish for being part of our “experiment” here in Winona as part of our Vatican II community who believed in the changes brought about by this most significant council that did indeed, “open some windows,” letting in some “fresh air,” as Good Pope John wished for and which Pope Francis is today calling us back to. Over our 15 years in existence, the Spirit has truly been with us, bestowing many graces. Through your generous financial support, we have been able to help many in our city, nation and world–thank you all so much! This is also true for all those who have supported us on-line. It has been my distinct privilege to pastor such a fine group of people!
• Please never hesitate to call, 507-429-3616, or email, aaorcc2008@gmail.com, if I can help in any way.

Dear Friends,

We are called to consider “family” this week–and what family means to us, in light of the “holy” family. Let us pray this week for all families, for what last year has been –for what next year could be…

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy
