END OF FISCAL YEAR June 30 will mark the end of the 2020—2021 fiscal year for each of the Circle of Faith parishes. We’d like to remind everyone that contributions for Sacrificial Giving must be given by that date to be included in the Annual Report. We appreciate your support to keep our parishes staffed with priests, and programs running smoothly.
2021 BISHOP’S APPEAL BISHOP’S APPEAL WINDING DOWN With the end of the fiscal year on June 30, we also conclude our promotion of the Bishop’s Appeal. Three parishes have not yet met their goal, so please consider even a small donation to help out.
NEW WEBSITE FOR ST. JAMES AND ST. JOSEPH We are excited to announce that a new website for St. James Church has just launched. This new site has features that the old Circle of Faith website was not capable of – most notably that it is user friendly on mobile devices like tablets or cell phones. It is a shared site with St. Joseph’s Church in Kellnersville. The homepage features photos scrolling across the top, and easy links for livestreaming, bulletins, contacting us, and Mass times. Then, when you enter St. James’ pages, you’ll find new and specific information for all things St. James. NEW WEBSITE FOR ALL SAINTS SCHOOL! We are excited to announce that a All Saints School also has a new website! Check it out at: allsaintsschooldenmark.netMASS OBLIGATION LIFFTED
On Monday, October 5, Bishop Ricken reinstated the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass in the diocese until further notice. Even with the reinstatement, we will continue to celebrate Mass publicly every weekend and weekday as scheduled for those who are able to attend and willing to strictly follow the proper health protocols. During this time of increased infection, our parishes will be even more vigilant in observing the health protocols shared in the diocesan guidelines to prevent the spread of disease and allow as many people as is safe to come to Mass without fear of infection. The wearing of masks is mandatory at Masses celebrated throughout our diocese. Thank you for your support and compliance as we as a community of faith come together to worship in safety.
UNIVERSAL ONLINE CHURCH SUPPORT
A new, easy and safe way to contribute to any Circle of Faith Parish is now an option with a credit card. The Green Bay Diocese through its Catholic Foundation has made this method available. You can give a one-time donation or recurring payments. When you visit the secured giving page www.catholicfoundationgb.org/donate all you have to do is enter your information, parish name, and gift amount. Any credit card or debit card will be accepted. It's so easy! The Catholic Foundation will mail the parish a check each week for the full amount—without any fee to you or the parish. Now, more than ever, we are grateful for your support!
