Christmas Flower Fund – St. John Nepomucene

Each year at this time, St. John Nepomucene welcomes donations to the Christmas Flower Fund in memory of departed loved ones. Donations in any amount may be made at the parish office from now until December 12th.

There will be envelopes at the Information Desk too. This not only enables us to decorate St. John Nepomucene during Christmas, but throughout the whole year!

Pillars Giving Tree – Appleton

Pillars Giving Tree – Appleton

Each year, nearly 2,000 people benefit from Pillars crisis shelter and supportive/affordable housing programs, including street outreach, crisis housing, case management and diversion from homelessness. Together, we are rebuilding lives and strengthening our community.

Last year we changed the way in which we were doing Giving Tree, due to staff shortages and found that implementing a system where we had drop-off times helped us a lot. As this allowed us to focus our main attention on the clients who need our support. We want to thank you in advance for being flexible and for continuing to support those in our community who need it most!

If you would like to support Pillars by doing a donation drive during the holiday season, we are so grateful! Below are a few ways to create your own Giving Tree!

Items can be brought to the Pillars Community Room, 609 E Hancock Street, at the following times/dates:

2022 Bishop’s Appeal – Hearts Filled With Hope

2022 Bishop’s Appeal – Hearts Filled With Hope

What is the Bishop’s Appeal?

The Bishop’s Appeal is a stewardship opportunity for each of us to reach out to thousands of people in search of Jesus’ love.  Each gift given supports the ministries of the Diocese of Green Bay which serve our parishes, Catholic schools and communities.  Your gift truly helps bring the heart and hands of Christ to our children, young adults, families and neighbors here in northeastern Wisconsin.

Why Give to the Bishop’s Appeal?

And the king will say to them in reply, “Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.” -Matthew 25:40

Your gift to the Bishop’s Appeal will help in countless ways.  Care ministers are trained to go out and share the Gospel with the homebound and sick.  Children and families are able to attend lively, interactive education programs learning the Word of God.  A young woman in an abusive relationship is able, through counseling with Catholic Charities, to stand on her own feet.  Families seeking to adopt are connected with newborn babies.  Your gift to the Bishop’s Appeal makes happy endings possible.

91-93% of every dollar raised goes to Diocesan ministries and services right here in northeast Wisconsin.

Thank you from the St. John Mission Club!

The St. John Nepomucene Mission Club would like to thank everyone who helped load items on Friday, December 17th and to Cliff Verstegen for letting us use his truck and trailer for delivery.

A third of the items went to St Vincent de Paul, Green Bay East. The rest went to the Community Clothes Closet in Menasha. We were able to help many people with the Mission Club drop box donations. Thank you everyone!

The St. John Mission Club will reopen on Wednesday, January 12th.
