CIA-Faith Mission Operatives ministry is excited to announce: “Encountering God on Death’s Doorstep – Part 2” with Ed Jozsa on March 30th at Xavier Fine Arts

When we kicked off our 2025-2026 Investigate Your Faith series last fall, this was a “hole” in our schedule. But once we heard Part 1 of Ed Jozsa’s miraculous NDE (Near Death Experience) story in October, we knew that Part 2 was the program meant for this Holy Week spot all along. 

On Monday, March 30th at 7 p.m. in the Xavier Fine Arts Theatre, Ed Jozsa will present “ENCOUNTERING GOD on Death’s Doorstep – Part 2″, his fascinating account of mystical experiences that occurred during and after he was crushed and trapped in his car for hours following an accident. Coming to Appleton from Indiana, Ed will give a brief recap of Part 1 before continuing with his story that focuses on how his suffering helped him go deeper into Christ’s Passion and what it means to take up one’s own cross.

St. John Nepomucene – Church Cleaning Volunteers Needed

St. John Nepomucene – Church Cleaning Volunteers Needed

St. John Nepomucene Church Cleaning occurs on the first Monday of the month (unless it falls on a holiday, then it is held on the following Monday). We are looking for more volunteers who would like to donate their time and help us clean!

You may attend the 6:45 a.m. Communion Service and then help with the cleaning afterwards or simply come at 7:30 a.m. and meet in the Gathering Space. Light cleaning is performed which consists of dusting, vacuuming, sweeping and other miscellaneous items.

Depending on how many volunteers come, cleaning usually takes about 1.5 hours or less! Help when you are able and stay as long as you are able! You will be doing a great service to your parish all while enjoying fellowship and then indulge on some great dessert bars and refreshments afterwards!

If you have any questions, please contact Amy or Betsy (contact information listed below) or you may call the parish office at (920) 788-9061 .
