Buildings and Grounds
The Building and Grounds Committee oversees the maintenance and upkeep of the parish property, buildings, and cemetery grounds. It also plans for future needs and capital improvements. The committee coordinates several parish workdays per year. Individuals are needed that are willing to help with projects or that possess special skills. Meetings are scheduled monthly generally on the fourth Thursday of the month at 6:30 PM.
Family Service Ministry
Family Service Ministry is a way for families to serve those in need together. It is a wonderful way to experience sharing Christ’s love together a family. Opportunities are scheduled each month for families to serve in ways such as assembling meals for the hungry or serving at a meal site. A calendar of opportunities is sent to those interested and sign up is based on availability for each family. Families with children of all ages are invited to sign up. If you are interested in being added to the email list, or if you have any questions, please email Julie Joosten (joosten.julie@gmail.com).
