Welcome
Today we welcome Christ the King and are reminded that all was created through Him and for Him. Does my stewardship of the blessings entrusted to me give evidence that Christ is Lord of my life?
"Then the king will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.'"
Mt 25:34-36Thanksgiving Prayer
Almighty God,
you bring forth bountiful food from the earth that our loved ones may never grow hungry. For this, we give thanks. You give us families that meet at this time to reunite and be one with each other. For this, we give thanks. You have let us live in a land that has unbridled opportunity and unparalleled freedoms. For this, we give thanks. For those who are hungry today, we pray for their fulfillment. For families that are separated, we pray for their unity. And for people who live in the midst of persecution, we pray for their deliverance.
We ask all these things through Christ, our ever-risen Lord.
Amen.Thanksgiving Day

Re-instating the Dispensation from the Obligation
to Attend Sunday MassOn Monday, October 5, Bishop Ricken reinstated the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass in the diocese until further notice. Even with the reinstatement, we will continue to celebrate the Mass publically every weekend for those who are able to attend and willing to strictly follow the proper health protocols. During this time of increased infection, our parish will to be even more vigilant in observing the health protocols shared in the diocesan guidelines to prevent the spread of disease and allow as many people as is safe to come to Mass without fear of infection. The wearing of masks is mandatory at Masses celebrated throughout our diocese. Thank you for your support and compliance as we as a community of faith come together to worship in safety.

Bishop RickenWill Broadcast Sunday Masses Again...
Bishop Ricken commented:
‘I am extremely pleased to announce that after hearing from so many viewers, the television broadcast of Sunday morning Mass will resume on WFRV Local 5 at 10:00 AM.’
The broadcast Sunday Massoriginates from St. Francis Xavier Cathedral in downtown Green Bay. While the ultimate goal is for the faithful to return to Mass in their own parishes, it has become evident there is a great need within the Diocese to serve those unable to attend in person.
Bishop Rickens said,
‘We hope this broadcast will help reach those who are homebound, as well as those in hospitals, nursing homes, prisons, or anywhere else where getting to church isn’t an option. I offer my sincere thanks to WFRV Local 5 for their willingness to continue broadcasting Sunday Mass, especially during these difficult times.’If/When you are not able to participate at Mass in person, be sure to participate in the virtual Mass with Bishop Rickent at 10 AM as described above. God bless!

Catholic United Financial is excited to introduce a new program to our parish.
Minis TREE is designed to identify and meet some of the volunteer needs in our parish and community.

For every 25 "leaves" that are completed or turned in, Catholic United Financial will contribute $125, up to a maximum of $500 in a calendar year. At this time "leaves" can be filled out for some of the following activities: 1.Service activities such as cleaning the sacristy and watering flowers, 2. Donations such as bringing in food pantry items, sewing supplies, food for a funeral, or the Baby Bottle drive, or 3. Being an event volunteer such as for a funeral meal or the Parish Picnic (when life gets back to "normal"). Some of the cards are already printed with an activity such as "food pantry donation" or "cleaning" printed on them. Other cards are blank and things like "worked at funeral" or "food for funeral", etc. can be written on them."Leaves" (activity cards) will be available on the bulletin board in the back corner of the church. When you have completed an activity fill out one of the cards and put it in the manilla envelope marked Completed MinisTree Cards.
If you have questions or know of an unmet volunteer need in our Parish or in our community that MinisTREE could help address, please contact Deb Kruger at 715 276-7404.

A Contagion of Hope
Christ Our Light! Your light rises in our darkness and assures us that you are present with us and that your powerful closeness to us transforms our fear into hope. May we join with our Holy Fa- ther, Francis, in spreading a "contagion" of hope "from heart to heart"?
Protect all your selfless servants who continue to serve the needs of the most vulnerable by both hands and heart. Give our elected leaders wisdom of heart in decision-making that the common good of our human family may be achieved and the gift of each person's human dignity re- spected. May the new Easter fire of love, energy and resili- ence burn within our hearts so that we may give witness to the mystery of your resurrected life among us and within us. Amen

GREEN BAY, Wis. (July 2, 2020) – With great excitement and an eye on health and safety, the Diocese of Green Bay announced today that Catholic schools will open this fall for in-person classes.
“We are pleased to announce that we will be ‘open for business’ in grades PK3-12 for the 2020-2021 school year,” said Superintendent of Catholic Schools, Todd Blahnik. “Our planning has been ongoing since the pandemic hit. Our schools have been developing a strategy to address student and faculty health and safety based on recommendations from the CDC, Department of Public Instruction, Wisconsin Department of Health and Human Services and County Health Departments. Our schools will be sharing plans with their community in greater detail as the summer unfolds.”
Under orders from the State of Wisconsin and Department of Public Instruction, students and faculty left their schools and moved to virtual education in late March, as the coronavirus began to be felt in the state of Wisconsin. While this event changed the delivery of education in the final months of the school year, Catholic school students and staff were able to pivot quickly and resume lessons in a virtual environment.
“I cannot tell you how impressed and proud I am of how quickly our students, teachers and parents were able to switch gears and embrace this new learning situation,” said Bishop David L. Ricken. “This is a testament to the exceptional learning experience we provide in Catholic schools throughout the diocese. I am fully behind our leadership in their recommendation to begin in-person class when school opens this fall.”
For additional information, please contact your local Catholic school directly, or contact Lori Paul, Advancement Director for Catholic Schools, lpaul@gbdioc.org
or 920-272-8163
and she will direct you to the school nearest to you.
