Today we celebrate Earth Day, giving thanks to God for the abundance of His creation and the many gifts entrusted to us. If you'd like to help care for our little piece of His creation, please consider participating in our Parish Spring Clean Up.

As stewards of this beautiful world, may we be mindful of how we care for it—honoring His creation through our actions, choices, and gratitude each day.

This week, the Archdiocese of Milwaukee observes Safe Environment Awareness Week as part of Child Abuse Prevention Month.

Providing safe spaces for children is a daily commitment in our parish and school. This includes background checks for those working with minors, ongoing training, age-appropriate safety education, and strict adherence to reporting laws.

Protecting children is a responsibility we all share. Thank you for helping keep our parish a safe place for every child. Learn more about our efforts and read a proclamation from the Archbishop on our website.

Every April the Archdiocese of Milwaukee parishes dedicate a week to elevating awareness of the Church's efforts to keep our children safe.

We’ve been truly blessed to have several men from our parish go through this program over the past few years. Their experiences have been a gift to our community, and they’re also a great resource for anyone who is curious or discerning this path.

If this has ever been on your heart, consider taking the next step and coming to learn more.
