Parish Council Notes
- Jared Pottkotter will be taking Dave Wuebker's place on the council.
- We are looking to hire a Director of Administration full-time.
- Sue Nietfeld will be retiring this spring.
- Our office staff has been restructured.
- Our Director of Youth Evangelization has resigned. We will be looking to replace this position, but perhaps in a different, larger capacity.
- St. Francis Roof Project Review:
- Parishioners from every parish/church contributed
- 92% of goal met as of 01/15/2024
- Reviewing of cluster financial situation after sharing the financial document this fall:
- Christmas collections were very good and put us within 4% of our target goal YTD.
- Parishioners provided feedback that prior to this the financial status was unknown and this was helpful information.
- Latin Mass Pastoral Plan/Benefits:
- Historically has lead to vocation booms; brings more people into the parish; it's a response to a spiritual need for those in the North that seek this elsewhere; we've already hosted events like Christ the King and others at St. Francis and St. Bernard and have had great response; connects us to the tradition of the Church
