WISDOM OF THE POPE

Let us never give in to pessimism, to that bitterness that the devil
offers us every day. Do not give in to pessimism and
discouragement.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO PRAY FOR THE SICK

When someone is seriously ill or in the hospital, it is up to family
members to notify Fr. Grubba or the Parish Office, (920) 295-6209
or (920) 293-4211, and their names will be listed in the bulletin the
next week so that they may be remembered with prayers and
letters. This week I would ask that you remember…Shut-ins of the
parish.
MAY YOUR JOURNEY ALWAYS LEAD YOU HOME!
