PARISH
From the Parish Office
In the fraught current environment, it is a duty of charity to one another to refrain from any non-essential social contact. For this reason, we are suspending RCIA, CCD, K of C, Fish fry, Choir practice and communion calls for the housebound. As a precaution, our Cathedral School will be closed to students next week. The parish office will be open for phone calls and emails but will be closed to the public. Holy Mass, confession, Extreme Unction and the other sacraments are essential and will continue. All Masses are at the high Altar to allow social distancing in the church. Holy water is removed from the stoups but is available at the communion rail. Ushers will open and close church doors and sanitize them. Those who suspect they are symptomatic or fear they are susceptible (over 60 years old and/or with underlying health conditions) are excused from their Sunday Mass obligation; others who fear for their health may approach Fr. Wylie for a dispensation from their Sunday Mass Obligation. Since Catholics are obliged to receive communion only once a year, if you have any doubts, please make rather an “Act of Spiritual Communion.” For a full list of guidelines for the Coronavirus (COVID-19) from the Diocese of Lincoln, visit: lincolndiocese.org/bishops/bishop-james-conley/statements/13602-diocese-of-lincoln-guidelines-for-coronavirus-covid-19.

Dear Parishioners, The 4th Annual Spring Fling is on Sunday, April 26th from 12pm-4 pm. This is an AMAZING event for adults and children alike, sponsored by the PCCW. Come enjoy lunch among friends, try your luck at BINGO, enjoy a live polka band, play some carnival games, participate in the cake walk, have your face painted, and most importantly FELLOWSHIP with other parishioners! EVERYONE is welcome and encouraged to come! PCCW is the Parish Council of Catholic Women. We are made up of 12 groups of women who support our parish in numerous ways. The most important role we have is to pay for ALL of the hosts for every Mass, for the entire year! This costs the PCCW thousands of dollars every year. We also fundraise for specific needs of the parish. This year, we are fundraising to fix the roof of the church so all proceeds from Spring Fling will go towards this need. The Spring Fling is a community event for our entire parish family. This event is a success due to the numerous organizations within our Parish Family and donations by parishioners. To alleviate some of the costs, we ask you to consider a Spring Fling sponsorship. Individuals, families, groups of friends, parish organizations, and businesses are all invited to sponsor one of our many activities or needs. We need your help and support to make this a fun and successful event for many years to come! Please see the back of this page for the levels of sponsorship and prayerfully consider a donation to the Spring Fling. Thank you for supporting our Parish! Sincerely,
