As a Catholic community of faith we have a particular charism that calls us to not only preach and teach God's people from behind a pulpit but to walk in the very presence of those we meet. We cherish the possibility that Jesus would visit us as a neighbor, a stranger or an outcast of society. In this mission we need the Spirit's gifts of discipleship, healing and service. Only when we are one in Jesus and one in each other can we come to share in the salvation promised to each of us. Pray that we may continue to move toward a community modeled on a Disciple of Jesus - St. Jude the Apostle.
Join our 5th Grade students as they answer their Lenten call to serve those around them! The students will be offering a FREE meal before the 6:30pm Ash Wednesday Mass. Service of grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup is from 5-6pm in the Knapp Gymnasium.
This past weekend, 20 high school teens and volunteer youth ministers traveled to the beautiful (but cold!) Green Lake Conference Center for our Winter Retreat. We had an incredibly grace-filled and engaging weekend of prayer, music, fellowship, and much laughter.
The theme for our retreat was "In the Flesh" and was based upon Christ's desire for us to become more like Him and share His love with all.
Our teenagers were empowered to make personal commitments to change the way they are living and to instead live for Christ. They were able to recognize the sin in their lives and make a commitment to change their lives. These teens have allowed Christ to become so present in their lives that when they left our retreat as living witnesses to the world - they are Christ “In the Flesh” to those they encounter at home, in school, and everywhere they go.
