The collection will support young people as they encounter Jesus. This collection will help us reach our Diocesan goal of 30 men in seminary formation by 2025.
How does your gift to the Raising Vocations Collection support Vocations?
This important collection supports ministries that help young men and women discover Christ and accompany them on their vocation journey. The collection is supporting ministries and is sending youth to events like Steubenville Conferences, Blessed Carlo Acutis Youth Day, SEEK conferences, and even more.

Updated Stipend and Stole Fee Structure – Effective July 1, 2024
The Diocese of Green Bay and our parishes are grateful to all those who have generously provided a donation for Masses, funerals, weddings and Quinceaneras in the past. The donation for these sacraments and services has remained the same for over thirty years throughout the Dioceses of Wisconsin. Recently, when the Bishops of the State of Wisconsin gathered, they decreed that stipends should be adjusted to reflect the current time. The new stipend structure is as follows:
Mass Stipend — $20
Funeral Stole Fee — $75
Wedding & Quinceanera Stole Fee — $100
This new fee structure will become effective July 1, 2024. It will not be applied retroactively to those who have already paid the appropriate amount from the former fee scale. The new fee structure will be applied to all new requests received as of July 1, 2024. As always, if someone is not able to offer the stipend, the parish is always happy to provide the sacrament or service with no fee. Please know, too, that any stipend money collected goes to the parish in support of its ministry and services provided to the parish
community; it does not go personally to the priest.
Please contact the parish office at (929) 788-9061 if you have any questions.
