St. John Nepomucene Little Flowers Girls’ Club had great success with Ringing Bells on December 11th!

St. John Nepomucene Little Flowers Girls’ Club had great success with Ringing Bells on December 11th!

The St. John Nepomucene Little Flowers Girls’ Club rang bells on Monday, December 11th for The Salvation Army. They rang bells in various shifts at the Piggly Wiggly in Little Chute and at Walgreens in Little Chute.

For the entire day, the kettles where the Little Flowers were participating, raised over $550 for The Salvation Army’s programs and services! A huge thank you to everyone who contributed and made the girls’ day by saying “hi” or taking a candy cane from them. We pray that everyone has a blessed holiday season!

December Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

December Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

The Church’s feasts and celebrations run on a yearlong cycle, which we call the “liturgical year.” The “liturgical year” starts on the first Sunday of Advent. So it’s a new liturgical year when Advent starts and Advent is a slightly different length each year.

It starts four Sundays before Christmas, but because Christmas is on a fixed date, and could fall on different days of the week; Advent can be as short as three weeks and a day (like it is this year), or as long as four weeks.

Blessings to all of you during this Advent Season. We hope it’s been meaningful and prayerful so far!
