GREETERS: I can’t tell you how important this ministry is. To
have people at our doors holding them open, saying hi or good
morning and smiling. It sets a tone that what we are going to is
worth it. I was at a restaurant/bar in Omaha the other day (Shucks)
at 19th and Leavenworth… the minute I walked in I was greeted by
the folks behind the bar and told go ahead be seated anywhere. It
made me want to come back because I felt like they wanted me to be
there. The same goes for our regulars and more importantly for
those who might be venturing back to church for the first time in a
long time or for our visitors. GREETERS JUST HAVE TO SHOW UP. So we
are going to begin assigning more to this duty. FINALLY, CALL THE
OFFICE AND LET JANET KNOW IF YOU WANT TO BE A GREETER… we have some
hitches in our giddy up in getting some names on the greeter list…
so just call and tell us. ALSO, THE BULLETINS WILL BE BROUGHT OUT
BY THE GREETERS AFTER COMMUNION AND HANDED OUT TO YOU AS YOU LEAVE
CHURCH.
CONFESSIONS: A reminder that confessions are heard on
Wednesdays, 4:30-5:15 pm.
From the Pastor’s Desk by Fr. Owen Korte
INTERESTED IN BECOMING CATHOLIC: Give me a call or send me a
note via email
[email protected]. We are going to run a joint RCIA program
with Fr. Keiter in Fordyce. It has already started, if you are
interested or know of someone, we need to get go-ing.
WE ARE GOING TO MAKE A PARISH FLOAT FOR THE CANDLE LIGHT PARADE:
In our storage garage we have a replica of the present Church plus
a replica of the original church… so, I say, lets get it out, dust
it off and make a Parish Float. Some guys on the Pas-toral Council
have stepped up to get this going. I want to get a couple more guys
together who will help build a flatbed on an already donated wagon
running gear. I have an inside place to work on this. Here is what
I am looking for: Tucked away in some barn on some farm is a bunch
of lumber… 2X12s or 2x10s and some 4X4s and other dimensional
lumber of some length—even if it’s not planed… we can get that
done… that is just itching to be donated to the parish. Call the
office ASAP. Thanks.

Guatemalan Mission: An invitation to make a short term mission
trip! In June/July 2018, you will have the oppor-tunity to join
other volunteer missionaries on a 12-day trip to Huehuetenango,
Guatemala. For nearly 15 years we have had a sister-diocese
relationship between the Archdiocese of Omaha and the Diocese of
Huehuetenango. Missionaries who have experienced this relationship
personally by travel-ling to Guatemala, describe the trip as “an
encounter with the Living Christ” and “a profoundly moving” or
“life changing” experience. Information Meetings on Oct. 29th, Nov.
5th, Nov. 12th, & Dec 10th, call Mark Zimmer at 402-452-4980
