VOLUNTEER NEEDED
Our Parish office is in need of a volunteer to work for at least
two hours one day a week (typically working from 9:00 AM to
11:00 AM). This person would answer the phone and may
perform a variety of clerical related tasks. Knowledge of
computers (especially Windows 10) and Microsoft Office
programs (such as Word and Excel) or any past secretarial
experience would be a big plus, but is not required.
This person would officially start in June. However, it would
be advantageous for this person to come into the office
periodically between now and June to shadow those working in
the office to learn the various tasks that need to be done.
Anyone interested should contact the Parish office at
(920) 293-4211.
A BIG “THANK YOU!”
A big Thank You to those folks that helped to remove the old

time.
Please consider volunteering to help at the picnic on
Sunday, August 8, by contacting the Parish office at
