FORMED Video of the Month for July – St. John Nepomucene

FORMED Video of the Month for July – St. John Nepomucene

The FORMED Video of the Month is “Who Do You Say That I Am” – Episode 1.
Jesus asks his disciples who people think he is. There are several different answers, but the significant answer is whether or not THEY know who Jesus is. It is imperative that the disciples know who he is before they begin their grueling journey. Do you know who Jesus is as you go through your journey?

July Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

July Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

The ONLY Christian church in existence for the first 1,000 years of Christian history was the Roman Catholic Church. All other Christian churches which exist today can trace their lineage back to the Roman Catholic Church. Most non-Catholic churches which exist today are less than a century or two old by comparison.

July 12th – Traveling Rosary For Vocations

July 12th – 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 fifth date and location is: 

July 12th from 1:00 pm until 2:30 pm at St. Francis and St. Mary Parish located at: 9716 Cemetery Rd, Brussels, 54204.

Fore more information, please contact 920-794-8276 or visit www.gbdccw.org or follow us on Facebook, gbdccw.
