CONSTRUCTION PROJECT UPDATES

FELLOWSHIP HALL
EXTERIOR LIGHTS: There has been some discussion on the exterior lights for the new hall. We have the
old style lights from the exterior of the church and will be
sending these in to be sand blasted and powder sprayed. They
will then be converted to LED lights and matching lights will
be placed on the building. Any donations for a specific project such as this are always appreciated.
EXTERIOR PAVING: We are planning on finishing the exterior over the summer. This includes sidewalk
work in front and back of the church. The alley should be
blacktopped at some point over the summer as well. This will
be finished as our parishioners and contractors have time, so
we ask for your patience as we progress.
DAY CARE GYMNASIUM OFFICE

The project at the St. Gabriel location is progressing
as well. We have applied for a loan from the diocese in order
to continue moving forward on this project. We are currently
planning the interior painting, floors, walls and details for
the day care. The exterior work is moving forward as well. We
are also planning the gymnasium details including floor, walls
and equipment. It remains our plan to be ready with the day
care for the beginning of the school year, and having the gym
ready by early fall.
FR ARULDOSS
Fr Doss is now at Holy Ghost parish in Chippewa Falls, and
will be there until the end of June. In July he will be moving
to St Charles Borromeo in Genoa. Please keep Fr Doss in
your prayers as he continues his preparation as an administrator of a parish for the Diocese of La Crosse. I would like to
express my gratitude to our Holy Family parishioners as well.
It is important to give our international priests a heartfelt
welcome and a good experience as they become accustomed
to a new culture. Fr Doss mentioned many times how he felt
welcomed by so many. This is a difficult time for them, plus
knowing they will be moved after a short time is always stressful. Thank you for your generosity in welcoming him to our
community.
ADORATION
Adoration is a special devotion that holds a special place in
the hearts of many Catholics. Here at Holy Family, we offer
this twice each week on normal circumstances. Each Thursday at St. Gabriels church following the 8:15 Mass until 1:00
PM, at which time we have benediction and reposition. On
Friday morning following the 8:15 Mass at St Johns church
we have adoration for approximately an hour, at which time
we have a simple reposition. In order to continue offering
these times of adoration, we are seeking commitments from a
person or two for the Thursday adoration, as we never want
to leave the Blessed Sacrament alone while he is in the monstrance. If you have a half hour or an hour, and desire to
spend some time with our Lord in adoration, please let me
know. As always, anyone and everyone are welcome to come
spend a few minutes with our Eucharistic Lord as your schedule allows. God bless
Fr. Jim

SCHOOL NEWSThe 8th graders are

anxiously awaiting their Gettysburg/Washington, DC
trip beginning on Sunday, May 15th. We will be visiting many places like the Gettysburg battlefield, Arlington National Cemetery, and Mt. Vernon that we have
studied in class. We hope for good weather and a fun
week with the adult chaperones. When we return,
graduation is only 5 days away. Many 8th graders
have been busy planning the Mass, putting together
the program, and practicing their parts. All are invited
on Thursday, May 26th at 6:00 pm at St. Gabriels
Church. Each 8th grader also will be displaying their
memory boards in the school cafeteria after the Mass.
The class of 2016 is the last to attend St. Johns School the end of an era!
