Rite of Sending and Rite of Election – St. John Nepomucene

Rite of Sending and Rite of Election – St. John Nepomucene

Angela Becker, Adam Lamers and Josh McGregor were officially “sent” after the 10 am Mass (Rite of Sending) on Sunday, March 6th to St. Francis Xavier Cathedral in Green Bay for Mass and a blessing by Bishop David Ricken (Rite of Election).

Angela, Adam and Josh have been taking part in the RCIA Program for several months with Deacons Dave Van Eperen and Bruce Corey in anticipation of becoming fully initiated into the Catholic faith at the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday, April 16th. All are welcome and encouraged to participate in this beautiful liturgy.

Parishes from across our diocese, and throughout the world, annually welcome new Catholics through the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). We pray for Angela, Adam and Josh, and all who desire to become Catholic. Those who have not yet been baptized are called Catechumens, and those who have been validly baptized in another Christian tradition and now seek full communion in the Catholic Church are called Candidates. Angela, Adam and Josh will receive the sacraments of First Eucharist and Confirmation. Josh, as a Catechumen, will also be baptized. 

If you are interested in becoming Catholic, please contact the parish office at (920) 788-9061 for more information or click this link. Lessons begin Monday, September 12, 2022 and you will be welcomed into the Church on Holy Saturday which will be held on April 8, 2023. We look forward to journeying with you!

So much energy last weekend at St. John Nepomucene!

So much energy last weekend at St. John Nepomucene!

What a blast it was to have the Holy Grounds Coffee Bar reopened and for the return of our Fellowship Sunday that the Knights of Columbus puts on! Not only did we get to celebrate Father Ron and Deacon Bruce’s birthdays as a parish family, but Children’s Liturgy returned to our 10 am Mass and we had 75 children attend! You could feel the energy!

Our Confirmation students and sponsors attended our 10 am Mass as well and St. John’s Little Flowers’ Girls Club were amazing greeters last weekend too! Thank you to everyone who was able to be there and help celebrate with us and those that joined us via livestream!

Join us this weekend again for Mass and then coffee, cookies and juice at the Coffee Bar. Children’s Liturgy will be at the 10 am Mass again!

Reverent Prayer Time – Eucharistic Adoration at St. John Nepomucene

Reverent Prayer Time – Eucharistic Adoration at St. John Nepomucene

What is Adoration?  Adoration is a quiet time spent in prayer before Jesus present in the Eucharist. It is a sign of devotion and worship of Jesus Christ, who is believed by Catholics to be present in body, soul, and divinity, under the appearance of the consecrated host. 

If you are interested in spending silent prayer time in front of the Blessed Sacrament at St. John Nepomucene, the church will be available the third Thursday of each month (as long as we have interest) for Eucharistic Adoration.

This will begin on Thursday, October 21st from 3:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m.

To sign up for a one-hour time slot, or request more information, please contact Tammy Spidle at 920-202-1631 or tammyspidle@gmail.com.
