Coming Alive In Your Faith
Revival’s in the Air
An exciting journey ahead
Our world is hurting. We all need healing, yet many of us are separated from the very source of our strength. Jesus Christ invites us to return to the source and summit of our faith: his Real Presence in the Eucharist. The National Eucharistic Revival is a movement to restore understanding and devotion to this great mystery here in the United States.

Thank you for your donations of $7,070.00   Our Goal is $11,510, let’s surpass our goal by Summer to proceed with the bathroom project.  The CMA Appeal supports specific ministries and programs of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester. In addition, any funds over and above our goal of $11,510 will be returned to the parish for our Handicap Family Bathrooms.  Now is the time to come together as the Body of Christ to support this. Each of us plays an important role, as St. Paul names us the “ligaments of the body,” and we, through our support, bring about the Church’s growth by building it up in love. Give the most generous gift you can. We need not only your financial gifts, but your prayers as well, in order that we may fulfill our parish goal for the Appeal and for the Project. Thank you for your support.
