Mass
TimesWelcome
We welcome each of you as we rememberJesus’ baptism and our own baptisms. Inthe thought of the early church . . . We find Christian baptism closely connected with the death and resurrection of Christ as a solemn rite in which the individual becomes so untied with Christ that he dies to sin and rises with a new life.

Thank You!
A Special Thank You!
To an anonymous donor for the beautiful Advent banners purchased in the memory of a loved one. They are hanging in the back of the Lakewood church and are beautiful!
Parish TithingThis month our parish has given $722.00 split equally to the Christian Food Pantry in Townsend, Avail Domestic Shelter and Hope Life Center in Antigo. This amount is a sacrificial gift of 5% of the money in our regular collections in November.
“Lights of Love”The beautifully lighted Christmas Tree in front of church is the result of a successful “Lights of Love” fundraiser held by our youth. We raised $318.00. This Christmas season the red bulbs will glow to commemorate the
memories and love of our loved ones who have left this life, and the green bulbs will glow in honor of the love you feel for your family and friends. Thank you for helping us light our Christmas Tree.Thank you! St. Mary’s Youth
