Barb Kimme Memorial Traveling Rosary for Vocations – June 14th at Sacred Heart Church in Shawano

Barb Kimme Memorial Traveling Rosary for Vocations – June 14th at Sacred Heart Church in Shawano

According to the Vocation Ministry Analysis from 2015-2021, the state of priestly vocations in our Green Bay Diocese meets 3 criteria to be considered as “unhealthy”.  To help raise an awareness and assist in rectifying this situation of the priestly vocation shortage, the GB Diocesan Council of Catholic Women has decided our best course of action is prayer to our Lord.

We are sponsoring a sort of 9-month novena for vocations. We will gather at 9 different churches every 2nd Wednesday of the month from March – November. The agenda includes song, prayer, speaker and reception. Our fourth date and location is: 

June 14th from 1:00 – 2:30 pm at Sacred Heart Church. Sacred Heart is located at 321 S. Sawyer St in Shawano 54166.
