You are invited to join faithful from across the diocese on Sat, Aug 9 at the Pablo Center in Eau Claire for a new opportunity to pause, reflect and renew our love of the gift of the Eucharist, as Jesus continues to give us His body and blood, strengthening us through life’s joy, sorrows and challenges.
The day’s events will include a river walk procession, Mass, engaging speakers, live music and Eucharistic adoration. Take this time to remember how much you need Jesus - and that He is Still the Answer for you, for your family, for your parish and for the world.
To learn more about the event and to register, visit diolc.org/still-the-answer.
Every year we are honored to do something special for couples who are celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary. Each couple receives a packet and certificate, as well as an invitation to attend one of three celebrations that include Mass with the Bishop followed by a dinner. We use the information provided by your parish’s records to know where to send the packets and invitations.
We are preparing for the anniversaries happening in 2025 and would like to get a head start on the 2026 anniversaries as well.
Please contact your parish office to ensure your wedding date is listed in the parish’s records.
Every week all three parishes will have Eucharistic Adoration.
St. Boniface—Tue, 4:30-5:30pm, St. Lawrence—Thu, 7:00-8:00am, Immaculate Conception—Fri, 7:00-8:00am.
All three parishes are in need of the faithful who are willing to share their time and talent as Readers, Servers, Ushers, or Eucharistic Ministers.
There will be training or a refresher class available. Please contact Connie in the office.
If you are planning on getting married in 2026 or 2027, you will need to attend a marriage preparation program. We only offer one class a year in the Arcadia Deanery. If you are interested in attending, there are pamphlets on the bulletin board in back of church.
The Vatican and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) have begun releasing materials about our new Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV, including official statements, photographs, and video content.
The faithful can visit diolc.org/pope-leo to access a central collection of these materials.
The Renewal Project is not a checklist or a program—it’s a personal invitation for you to engage with your faith on your time and on your terms. Rooted in prayer and community, this diocesan-wide effort encourages each of us to take a simple step deeper in our relationship with Jesus Christ. You will find a variety of invitations to help you reflect, grow, and respond to the Lord in your daily life—whether as parents, couples, singles, or students. It's about opening your heart to His presence and letting Him renew you from the inside out. To learn more and begin your journey, visit diolc.org/renewal. Come and see what the Lord desires for you.
You are most welcome to join for FREE as an opportunity to deepen your relationship with Christ and the Blessed Virgin as you understand the beauty and significance of the rosary.
This will be a 10-minute daily podcast to hear about the basics, what it means to have a relationship with Jesus and Mary, the meaning of the prayers, understand better the different mysteries and how to meditate on the life of Christ to encounter Him.

Fr. Albert would like to share the goodness of Holy Communion under both species at weekend Masses in the three parishes. That means that there will be a need for more Eucharistic Ministers at all our parishes. Three individuals would be needed for each Mass with the hope of getting more parishioners involved. The hope would be to tentatively start the weekend of Jul 19/20. Each church is hoping to get 12 or more parishioners trained so that everyone would only be scheduled once per month.
Please volunteer your time. St. Boniface would plan an Eucharistic Ministers training session for 6:15pm on Sat Jul 5 before our evening Mass. Then also, repeat the training at 6:00pm on Tue evening Jul 8 after the 5:30pm Mass for anyone that missed the first date. Immaculate Conception & St. Lawrence will be calling/asking people and then setting a date that will accommodate everyone for training.

We are looking for someone to clean the rectory once a week for the months of June & July. Rita Greshik has been doing it but will be gone most of the summer helping with grandbabies. If interested or have questions please let Connie know in the office.
