Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
As we continue to try to serve you as best as possible, we have made a few changes that hopefully will be of benefit to you. One of the more common comments I have received is that people don’t know whom to call to reserve a room, set up a special Mass, how to get things in the bulletin, etc. To that end we have revised the second page of the bulletin to include these and other reasons why a person may want to reach out to the parish and to whom they should call/email. Included in this list is the phone number to call if there is something that is broken or not working correctly in a meeting room.
All leaders of ministries should have received a packet to schedule meeting space and facilities for the next fiscal year. If you have not received it, please contact Tom Leeman. The priority in scheduling will be based on our mission as a parish. The order (from highest priority to lowest) is: Celebration of the sacraments and preparation for these celebrations; growing in knowledge of our faith (school, faith formation, confirmation, bible studies, etc.); growing in relationship with Christ (prayer groups, devotions, etc.); growing in community and our service to others (Knights of Columbus, service ministries, social activities); any other parish organization or activity; ministries, groups, and events from outside the parish. My hope is that this will make it easier for all our ministries to use our beautiful facilities to draw closer to the Lord and one another.
In Christ,
Bishop Tim Freyer
