Institution of our Church!
Each 2nd Sunday of March we celebrate the Institution of our Church, which was organized the 2nd Sunday of March, 1897. 129 years later, we continue to Thank Almighty God for providence and the gift of our Church!
Lent Materials
We have Lent materials on the sign up table to guide us through this season. Please help your self!
Lent Service Project - Our food drive is off to a good start to collect canned goods, non-perishable food items, and personal hygiene items in support of the Portage Township pantry. We have flyers on the collection table with a specific list of what is needed. Please bring items and drop them in the large basket or table in the back of the church. Thanks for helping!
Lent Services - We have a flyer with all services for this season of Lent, all taking place on Wednesdays at 6pm. Please take a flyer with you as a reminder!
Lord’s Supper Remembrance - Our parish Lord’s Supper Remembrance will be March 25 at 6pm. This is a special event and one of the most memorable events of our church year. Please see the sign up sheet if you would like to attend! The final sign up deadline is March 15 (firm). Also, it is important that you let us know if your plans change and are not able to attend after signing up.
Please take a flyer with you so that you can invite others!
Lord’s Supper Setup - We will setup the Hall for the Lord’s Supper Remembrance on March 22 following Mass. Volunteers and needed!
Spring Clean - We will Spring Clean our church and grounds on Saturday March 21 at 10am. This task is especially important this year because of the frequent snow and cold conditions, resulting in much sand and ice melt residue on the sidewalks and inside the church. Mops, rags and tools will be provided. Volunteers are needed - Thanks for helping!
Preparation for Mass
We ask that about 10 minutes prior to Mass we begin moments of quiet. If you wish to visit, please do so quietly so not to disturb others who are praying or preparing for Mass.
