VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY

First Friday 24-Hour Adoration: Coordinator Needed

We are seeking a volunteer to take over the coordination of our 24-hour Adoration Vigil at St. Andrew Church starting next month. We are incredibly grateful to Linda Nelson for her years of service as she prepares to move out of state.

This is a wonderful way to support our parish’s prayer life with a manageable time commitment. If you feel called to help us sustain this beautiful ministry, please email the parish office or call 608-271-7421.

SUMMER BOOK CLUB

Divine Mercy Parish’s Summer Book Club Tradition Continues! 

We will continue to explore our larger theme of Literature & Catholic Imagination – this time with a focus on “Catholic Imagination and the End of the World.” Mark your calendars and join us for a 10-session book study meeting every Thursday night from June 18 – August 13, and closing with a Friday Night Film on August 14! 

We’ll be reading three books together — The Giver, That Hideous Strength, and The Road — guided by an able team of parishioners once again! Join us for all or some of the book study together.

Note! Summer Book Club is for parishioners and non-parishioners, Catholics and non-Catholics, alike! Invite a friend!

Times, locations, reading schedule, and all other details are routinely updated on the webpage!
