​​​​​​​Our hearts were broken this past week when we learned that Evelyn Dieckhaus, granddaughter of Tom & Linda Dieckhaus, was one of the victims of the shooting in Nashville, Tennessee.  Please continue to pray for Evelyn, her family, and for all who were affected by this tragic and senseless shooting.  And let’s pray for an end to violence.

Thank you for your support of our Parish Breakfast last weekend. Our combined parish Lenten Penance Service will take place this Thursday at Our Lady of Lourdes Church. 

Breakfast is served! Come on over to Cafe Borgia, aka, our Grade School Cafeteria, for some delicious breakfast and great company this Sunday.

Welcome to the 3rd Sunday in Lent and our weekend to spring forward those clocks! Last Sunday was really wonderful with the celebration of our Family Mass at the 9:00 a.m. Mass

Thank you to all who came out to support the KC Hall Fish Fry last Friday evening!  We had a great turnout and it was a really enjoyable evening. Please continue to pray for our RCIA members who have been working hard to learn more about our Catholic Faith in preparation for the Easter Sacraments.

As we proceed through these first days of Lent, please keep each other in prayer. This can be such a rich season of growth for us.

Thank you for your feedback which you provided last weekend for the new draft model from the All Things New strategic planning process. All are invited to come on over to the Grade School cafeteria for breakfast this morning.

I encourage you to stop by the Choir Room this weekend after all the Masses to take a look at the new model from the Archdiocese of St. Louis for our Planning Area. Your feedback is welcome and appreciated. 

Many thanks to all who participated last week in our Catholic Schools Week celebrations!  I encourage you to read the attached announcement from the Strategic Planning Office regarding All Things New and remember to pray for Archbishop Rozanski and his advisors.

Happy Feast of the Epiphany! This feast celebrates that Jesus is made known to the world as the Son of God and that all are invited to welcome him into their hearts.

Happy New Year! I hope you enjoy a happy, healthy, and holy 2023. Let’s make this a great year of striving to grow closer to our Lord and living the faith he calls us to live.

What a wonderful opportunity we get every year at Thanksgiving to remember the blessings God has bestowed upon us and upon our nation as we ask him to continue to bless us and guide us.
