Pastor Appreciation Day This Sunday God Called, He Answered
Yes, Father Frank Bass answered his call to priesthood, and has served humbly and faithfully for 14 years. We have been abundantly blessed to have him as our pastor. He has been a model of virtues in his service as a holy and zealous priest. His inspirational and thought-provoking homilies have helped us to adjust and accept the various challenges in our lives, and we say, “Thank You, Father Bass!”
Let us show how grateful we are on his Pastor Appreciation Day, January 28th, after 10:30 Mass in the Ott Center. All parishioners are invited to celebrate with Father Bass. Come and say “Thank You!”
I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.

Come, Lord Jesus!
Do you want the opportunity to deepen your understanding of the Gospel readings? We will be offering a Come, Lord Jesus! scripture study program during this Lenten season. Join us as we open our hearts to more fully comprehend the word of God as we read and discuss the Gospel for the upcoming Sunday Mass.
This is a great opportunity to enhance your knowledge and more fully understand the meaning of Holy Scripture. We will introduce the program, distribute materials, and review the first week’s Gospel reading on Thursday, February 15th. Subsequent meetings will be held each Monday during Lent. Morning and evening sessions will be offered in the Isidore Center at 9 AM and 6 PM. There is no cost for this program. Please call the church office at 775-8850 to register.
Our parish ushers want to thank everyone who purchased a pastalaya plate at their fundraiser last weekend.
