Friends, we “know” God has perfect timing but how many times in our lives do we strive against His timing trying our best to make our timelines work?

If anyone ever asks me a good way to start reading the Bible, I usually recommend that they start by reading these two books written by St. Luke.

Check out and share these great open positions with the parishes!

When we are baptized we are baptized into the life of Jesus. We are baptized into Jesus’ priestly ministry, his prophetic ministry, and his kingly ministry. Each and every one of us is called by our baptism to live out these roles.

Jesus‘ kingly ministry may seem a little strange to us…

November is the month of wind and rain and scarves. November is the month of first fires and puppy snuggles. November is the month I welcomed my first child into the world. My body, mind and soul know the signs of these times.

My wife Lynn and I recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary by taking a trip to the Canadian Rockies. I’ve heard it said, that when you travel to the East Coast, you tend to be surrounded by things that humans have built. And, when you spend time in the West, you can experience the grandeur of God’s creation!

The Lord God Made Them All!

What would a typical day in the life of a priest look like? Well, to be frank, there is not a typical day in the life of a diocesan priest. (BTW, picture is of our past pet blessing - this year it's this Friday, October 3rd at 3:05 on the NDDP playground!)

Welcome the children! We couldn't do it without our volunteers and disciples growing in faith together!

Each year at Notre Dame of De Pere, we select a theme that is in alignment with a Bible verse. This year’s theme is Isaiah 43:1, “I have called you by name and you are mine.”

Farewell, Thank You & Welcome!

Jesus knew the metaphors we would need to understand the kind of sustenance his body could be for us - is there anything more inspiring or comforting than the smell of bread, the sound or feel of its crackling crust, or the satisfaction of that first carb-laden bite?

One of the oldest holy days recognized by the church is this week - will you join us for the Assumption of Mary?

Meet our new icon for this Year of Jesus in the Eucharist!

What would summer be without a blockbuster movie review? I suggest that you watch both with another person. The films are ripe with things to talk about!

I am a big fan of Steve Hartman of CBS News. On any given Friday near the end of the newscast, Steve is "On The Road," featuring heartwarming stories from across our country. And in the times we live in, any story that is "heartwarming" is really welcome at the end of the week.
