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 .

November Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

November Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

It’s important for us as Catholic Christians, as we defend our faith, to note that we do not worship Mary or the saints; we HONOR them and ask for their intercession, just like asking a friend to pray for us. One beautiful way to ask for Mary’s intercession is to pray a daily Rosary to encourage deeper devotion to her and to bring us closer to Christ.

Blessed Mother, pray for us. Jesus, have mercy on us.

The Fisherman’s Ring

Did you know that each pope wears a custom ring engraved with his name? The ring, called The Fisherman’s Ring, depicts Saint Peter in a boat, a reference to his role as a fisher of men. The tradition of destroying the ring after each pope’s death was changed in 2013 when Pope Benedict XVI resigned. Instead of being destroyed, a deep cross was carved into his ring so it could no longer be used.
