General Considerations
-
Those who are ill or have significant health risk factors should make a prudent decision about attending Mass.
-
Every effort should be made to return Sunday/weekday worship to a style that promotes the full, active, and conscious participation of all in attendance as called for by the liturgy and expected by the People of God while maintaining a reasonably safe and comfortable environment.

We welcomed Vincent David Verhotz, son of David and Ashley into our Catholic Community through the Sacrament of Baptism. Pictured from left are David, Ashley holding Vincent, Father Conoboy, and godparents Kelly Kirchner and Mike Verhotz. Congratulations to Vincent, his parents, families and friends! May God continue to bless him as he grows in his faith.

Charity and Justice
What is Justice?
In our current environment it’s hard to tell what’s ‘fair’, ‘right’ or just.
Over the next few months we will share what our faith tells us justice is, what we believe, and how we take action for justice in our parish and in our community. I hope you will join us in exploring justice by reading our monthly posts, considering how justice can take shape in your everyday life, and contributing to this especially important conversation. -more-(click)
