St Michael's Golf

GOLF ANYONE? Parish Men: We are forming teams for a men’s golf league that will begin in late April and finish in September. All golf abilities are welcome. Come out and get to know your fellow parishioners while enjoying a nice evening out. If interested, sign up in the back of church or please contact Jimmer Noel at JSNOEL@windstream.net.

St Michael's Lenten Studies

St. Michael’s Lenten Studies…Yep! The Mass is boring, it is just not entertaining, and I don’t get it. If we have ears, but do not hear; eyes but do not see, that is a right-on assessment, isn’t it? Well, hang in there because St. Michael’s is planning a spiritual tune up for this Lent. Stop being shortchanged! Our Lenten Studies will open your eyes & ears to the Encounter you should have with Jesus at Mass. He promised To meet you at every Mass; well, he’s there waiting for you. It is up to you to ask, to see, to hear. It helps when you “know”. Boring? You’re kidding! The Mass is perfect

World Marriage Day Celebration

World Marriage Day Celebration Weekend of Feb. 11-12 at all Masses World Marriage Day honors husband and wife as head of the family, the basic unit of society. It salutes the beauty of their faithfulness, sacrifice and joy in daily, married life. "Love One Another". This phrase is the commandment given us by Jesus in John 15:12. It speaks to us in a simple but challenging way of how our Heavenly Father wishes us to live. Loving one another is a daily decision - simple, but challenging. Watch future bulletins for more details.

Scrip Volunteers

We have a few open volunteer slots in our schedule, please consider volunteering for one of these times.
If you have questions, please contact Shannon Dusenbery at 402- 440-6897. We need to fill the schedule as soon as possible. Thank you for your support!
