The 15th annual Seminarian Collection is underway. By now, you have received a letter from Bishop Ricken inviting you to take part in the vocation mission. Your gift will help our seminarians move forward in their studies and formation. Please return the pledge card through the mail or donate online at www.catholicfoundationgb.org/give. Whatever you are able to give is greatly appreciated. Please remember there will NOT be a second collection in church. The diocese has mailed out information on how to donate to this special cause. For more information go to the Catholic Foundation website.

A new school year is rapidly approaching. Although instruction may be different this year, the need for students to have the proper supplies is still important. Our Circle of Faith parishes have been asked by Denmark Helping Denmark to collect school supplies again this year.

Collection Dates: July 26 ~ August 16

• Bring donations to any Circle of Faith Church
• Cash donations or gift cards are also appreciated

Any family who is in need of school supplies, but not affiliated with Denmark Helping Denmark may call Jean Schleis at 863-3965 for confidential assistance.

 

 

This was the theme for the Youth Ministry mission trip and we certainly did follow through with that challenge. Thank you to everyone who supports Youth Ministry. We could not offer the encounters with others and with Jesus Christ without this wonderful community. This year we were able to serve NEW Community Shelter in Green Bay, Ruby’s Pantry in Denmark and The Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in LaCrosse. A special treat was having Mass with and meeting Cardinal Raymond Burke at the Dedication Anniversary of the shrine. We were also treated to a visit at the Rudolph Grotto Gardens. Check out more pictures on Facebook at onedegreeyouthministry.

SCHOOL OPENING FOR 2020-2021

 

The Diocese of Green Bay released a document this week that outlines and summarizes guidelines for the opening of Catholic schools based on current evidence and guidance from the Department of Public Instruction, CDC, and Wisconsin Department of Health Services. While no school is exempt from the possible risks of infection from COVID-19, careful and thoughtful planning specific to All Saints School, along with proper precautionary measures will help protect staff and students, while mitigating risk to the Denmark community. Ms. Vander Heiden is in contact with Mr. Goral at the public school in an effort to cooperate in these important matters.

 

 

The 8:00 am Sunday Mass at St. James will continue to be livestreamed into the foreseeable future.

The following safety guidelines will be in place:

If you are experiencing any of the following, please stay home or return home and take care of yourself: • Cough • Fever • Shortness of breath • Sore throat • Loss of taste or smell • Have been in contact with anyone diagnosed with or suspected to have COVID-19 in the past 14 days (without proper use of personal protective equipment)

 

As you arrive, be aware of the following procedures

• Your temperature will be taken. If it exceeds 100.4°F, you will be asked to go home.
• You are strongly encouraged to wear a mask. If you do not have a mask, one will be offered to you.
• Social distancing is to be observed at all times.
• Use hand sanitizer as you enter and leave church.

ST. JAMES AND ST. JOSEPH

We are pleased to announce the return to public Masses. On June 14, there will be an 8:00 Mass at St. James, and a 10:00 Mass at St. Joseph. Churches can have up to 25% their capacity. At St. James, the Mass will be streamed to the basement to allow for additional capability. Guidelines for the return to these public Masses are available here and will be posted on our Facebook pages. We are happy to welcome you back to the celebration of the Mass in this limited way. We anticipate the return of Saturday Masses when Father Santy returns and is able to celebrate Mass.

ALL SAINTS/ST.MARY/HOLY TRINITY

All Saints and St. Mary Glenmore will be returning to public Mass on Saturday June 13 and Sunday June 14. We will resume with our normal Mass schedule of:

• 4:00 pm Saturday Mass at All Saints
• 8:30 am Sunday Mass at St. Mary Glenmore
• 10:30 am Sunday Mass at All Saints

We will fall under the same 25% attendance restriction as the other parishes in the Diocese. Please be patient with us as we move ahead again into a new transition to the Holy Mass.
