An Uplifting Update

Following last month's survey, parishioners overwhelmingly agreed to keep the time of our weekday Masses. However, there was great support for an evening Mass option. We understand that schedules can be busy and commitments plentiful, which is why beginning April 29, we will shift the Monday 8:30 a.m. Mass to 6:30 p.m. This will be the only weekday Mass to be affected. Whether it's before your Monday parish meetings or as a time for your family to come together in prayer after school, we hope this change will make it easier for you to attend a weekday Mass.

Pray for Our Youth

Our confirmandi will receive the sacrament of Confirmation this Wednesday, April 17. As a faith community, we pray God looks kindly upon them as they seek to hear His voice. We pray the Holy Spirit continues to enlighten, guide, strengthen, console, and open their hearts.

Prayer and Platters With the Social Committee

Take a guided tour of historic St. Stanislaus Church with Father Mark and the Social Committee on Thursday, April 25. Then share in a special ethnic meal with platters made by the church's parishioners!

5:30 p.m. Tour

Smile, Make a Splash, and Support a Good Cause 💦

Time's running out to get your Super Cash Bonanza tickets! The annual Knights of Columbus raffle supports local charities, including Amanda's Accessible Swimming Fund.

Named after Amanda Sterneckert, a beloved parishioner who passed away earlier this year, the fund aims to create fully accessible changing rooms in community pools. Amanda found joy in swimming, but as she grew older, the lack of accessible changing rooms became a barrier. The fund aims to install adult changing tables and lift systems in community pools, making swimming accessible to all.

The Knights hope to sell 5,000 tickets in honor of Amanda. By supporting the raffle, you'll help create inclusive spaces where all individuals can enjoy the freedom of swimming.

Tickets can be purchased online or from any St. Ladislas Knight.
