St. John Nepomucene would like to reach out to the parish community and see if anyone has something they would like to sell or donate.  What we are looking for is a cargo van since we had to sell our green parish maintenance truck that was no longer working. 

If you have a lead or any information in regards to this request, please email Deacon Dave at dvaneperen@stjn.org. Thank you!

November 8th – Traveling Rosary For Vocations

November 8th – Traveling Rosary For Vocations

Barb Kimme Memorial Traveling Rosary for Vocations: All men and women young and old, are invited to help us pray for our Diocese and an increase in vocations. According to the Vocation Ministry Analysis from 2015-2021, the state of priestly vocations in our Green Bay Diocese meets 3 criteria to be considered as “unhealthy”.

To help raise an awareness and assist in rectifying this situation, we the GB Diocesan Council of Catholic Women, have decided our best course of action is prayer to our Lord. We are sponsoring a sort of 9-month novena for vocations. We will gather at 9 different churches every 2nd Wednesday of the month from March – November. The agenda includes song, prayer, speaker and reception. Our eighth date and location is: 

Our ninth date and location is: Wednesday, November 8th at St. Jude the Apostle Parish/ Sacred Heart Church (located at: 519 Knapp Street in Oshkosh) from 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. and Father Louis Golamari will be our speaker.
