Bishop Helmsing Institute—Morning Classes

Posted on by

BHI classes are being held regularly at the Parish
Center on Thursday mornings from 9:00 a.m. until
11:30 a.m.

The next 4-week course “Our Life in Christ” starts on
April 12th and ends on May 3rd. This course
investigates Part 3 of the Catechism: “Life in Christ.”
Students will learn the Catholic understanding of the
human person, the common human vocation to
beatitude and how this vocation is lived out as “Life in
Christ.” The Ten Commandments will be our frame of
reference for examining specific questions about moral
actions and virtues.

The following 4-week session, “Marriage and Family’
will also be held in the Parish Center and will begin on
May 10th.

The cost of each series of classes is $30, senior citizens
$20. If you need scholarship assistance, please call
the parish office.

Operation Rice Bowl Reflection: The Passion

Posted on by

As we reflect on the passion of Christ, we
remember that more than 44 million people in
the United States are living in poverty. While 75%
of our gifts to Operation Rice Bowl support Catholic
Relief Services’ programs around the world, 25%
of our contributions remain in our diocese to
support local hunger and poverty alleviation efforts.

Your prayers, fasting, learning and almsgiving
through Operation Rice Bowl make a significant
difference in the lives of people in our community
and in communities around the world.

Repairs and Maintenance

Posted on by

Have you been in the school lately and noticed all of the
improvements that have been made in the last year?
With your monthly financial contributions through the
“Renovation Envelope” volunteers have been able to
glaze and paint the school windows, update some of the
lighting in the gym and kitchen, repair the kitchen
appliances, paint the kitchen and gym, renovate two
classrooms, repair a leaky roof, and much more. We
have also been able to put new lights and ceiling tiles
in the Parish Hall. It is because of your generosity
that we have been able to continue to make these
improvements.

Thank you to all who have helped either financially or
have physically done any of the work
If you would like to occasionally help any of our
volunteers, please call the parish office at 353-2380 for
additional information.
