Bulletin – 2nd Sunday of Advent

Mass on Sunday, December 8, 2019, 10 A.M. 


Remember our Christmas pot-luck on December 21, 2019 after the 4:30 P.M. Mass–let me know if you can join us!


In January, we will be having board elections–we will for sure need one replacement to the board–please consider whether you might be called to this ministry.


Please continue your prayers for Eric B. and Katherine K.  


Dear Friends,

We continue to journey to the crib.  Something to reflect on might be the way Jesus came to us–not in splendor, but in poverty.

Come; reflect with us on what this might mean for our world; if we took it seriously.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

All Are One Roman Catholic church Statement as a Sanctuary Support Community

“We affirm that as a congregation of people of faith, we are taking seriously the call to provide sanctuary support in the Winona Sanctuary Network. We recognize that our immigrant neighbors are a vital part of our community and local economy and that due to a broken immigration system they have not all been allowed the legal protections that they deserve. To this end we will use our privilege and our resources to stand with our community members that are in fear of deportation. As a sanctuary support community we are able to do this by providing; prayers, security, time, money, advocacy, relationship, and fellowship to the degree that is within our power.”


 

Bulletin – 1st Sunday of Advent

Dear Friends,

Mass on Sunday, December 1, 2019 at 10 A.M. 


SAVE THE DATE:  December 21, 2019–Christmas Pot-luck after the 4:30 Mass. This will be a more simple meal–soup, bread and salad and of course, Christmas treats! Watch for a sign-up sheet soon! 


Schedule for Christmas-time liturgies: 

  • Christmas Eve Mass, December 24, 2019, beginning at 4:15 p.m. with carols
  • Christmas Day, December 25, 2019–NO MASS
  • Sunday, December 29, 2019–NO MASS–due to floors in our worship space being refurbished. Our board agreed that this was the best solution for us–trying to find another place at this time of year would be difficult.
  • January 5, 2020–Mass at 10 A.M. in our usual spot!

Continue to pray for Eric B. and Katherine K. and their families.


Our anthem beginning this Sunday is, “Come, Jesus come!” Advent begins and moves us into a beautiful time of waiting. Don’t rush the waiting.

Come; ponder all this with us this week!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL–I am most grateful for each of you! 

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Bulletin – Feast of Jesus, Our Brother and Friend

Dear Friends,

Mass on Sunday, November 24, 2019 at 10 A.M.–Last Sunday of the Church Year!


Please pray for our parishioners, Eric Bartleson and Katherine Krage as they struggle with ill health and recovery.


SAVE THE DATE!  Saturday, December 21, 2019 after the 4:30 P.M. Mass, Christmas Pot-luck! This will be a soup supper with Christmas treats! Watch for a sign-up sheet soon!


ANNOUNCEMENT FOR OUR CHRISTMAS SEASON–Christmas Eve Mass on Tuesday, December 24, 2019 at 4:30 P.M.   The following Sunday, December 29, 2019, Holy Family Sunday, there will be, NO MASS due to the floors at Lutheran Campus Center being refurbished and not ready yet for our use on that Sunday.  I ran this by the board and they agreed, this was best.  I am sorry for this inconvenience. 


This Sunday marks the end of our Church Year–next Sunday we move into the holy season of Advent.  This feast, traditionally, at least in our time, has been known as, “Christ the King.”  I have suggested, for several years that we consider renaming it, “Jesus, our Brother and Friend,” as that speaks to a better relationship with Jesus.

Come; find out why!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Bulletin – 33rd Weekend in [Extra] Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

Mass on Saturday, November 16, 2019 at 4:30 P.M. Thanksgiving pot-luck to follow the Mass. It is not too late to sign-up–just let me know that you can be with us and what you can bring! 


Remember to sign our Book of Life available in Church during November with names of family and friends who have died this past year. 


Remember to hold Eric Bartleson and his family in your prayers.  Eric experienced a stroke (brain bleed) this past week and is being treated at Gundersen Lutheran hospital.  He has a Caring Bridge account:  ericbartleson –one word, where you can follow his progress. He is in rehab now and the family is requesting NO VISITORS so that Eric can rest and get well.  


We are at the end of this Year of Grace with the 33rd Weekend in [Extra] Ordinary Time.  Next Sunday we celebrate the yearly feast of Jesus, our brother and friend.  Formerly we have known this Sunday as Christ, the King, but the words, “brother and friend” speak more clearly to our relationship with him.

Come; celebrate with us this Saturday!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Bulletin – 32nd Sunday in [Extra] Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

Mass on Sunday, November 10, 2019 at 10 A.M. 


Remember to sign up for the Thanksgiving Pot-luck on November 16, 2019 after the 4:30 P.M. Mass


This week’s readings call us to consider death, but also life–life everlasting–something that we take on faith, but can’t truly understand in the here and now.

Come this week and ponder all this with us. I will be with you this Sunday! I am most grateful to Pastor Dick Dahl for standing in for me these past two weeks–thank you Dick!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy
