  • Keep Changes in your Prayers (5/10/2025)

    We are entering a time of change. It is still the Easter season so we are filled with hope but things are going to be different. Fr. Todd is settling into his new assignment in Marshfield. That called for a change in the Monday Mass that was floating between parishes in Stevens Point. As pastors we looked at our own responsibilities that often took us out of the parish. To offer a dependable and consistent time and place to offer a Monday Mass in the area St. Bronislava was able to fit those needs. Therefore, Mass will be offered on Mondays at St. Bronislava at 5:30 pm. The Monday Mass will continue here at St. Peter’s parish for the month of May and then make that transition on June 2nd.

    Another change is particular to Sister Angelica Marie of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (a sister of the Seraphic Adorers of the Child Jesus). Bishop Battersby will be here at St. Peter parish for her First Profession of Vows. That Mass will be at 11 am on May 13th. You are free to be here for the Mass. Praying for vocations–religious, to Holy Orders or to the married state is so very important. Your prayers, presence and support would be appreciated.

    Also a change for the better is the support the Knights of Columbus give to those with Intellectual disabilities. This drive is often known as the Tootsie Roll drive. This will be coming up on the weekend of May 17-18th. This will happen both at St. Casimir and St. Peter parishes. I encourage all of our Knights to give of their time that weekend to make it successful. It is just one avenue that the Knights of Columbus serves locally and nationally those who need support.

    All change to be fruitful needs to be rooted in prayer, a deep prayer that allows God to speak to us, to guide us and put others first out of love of neighbor. St. Teresa of Calcutta said “We need silence in order to touch the souls of others. The essential is not what we say, but what God says–what He says to us, and what He says through us.” So keep all of these changes in your prayers in the coming days.
