Rosary Leaders Wanted - With the easing of Covid restrictions, we are being welcomed back to visit the residents
in some of our assisted living homes. One ministry that we’d like to begin again is leading Catholic residents in a
weekly rosary. We are looking for a few volunteers who would be able to do this at Patriot Place in Berlin. There will
be a team of people, rotating each week, so it would only be one Monday a month, at 3 PM. If this is something you
would be able to do, please call the office.
All Saints Council of Catholic Women (CCW) – We will not be having our final meeting of the season on June 7,
but will be livestreaming the MDCCW Annual Convention on Saturday, June 12 in the parish hall or the meeting
room, depending on the group size. All women of the parish are invited to this event which will feature Keynote
Speaker, His Excellency, The Most Reverend Bishop Donald Hying, Bishop of Madison, along with Anna Nuzzo, an
acclaimed international Catholic singer, songwriter and recording artist; guest speaker, Jeanne Ewing – “Finding Joy
in the Chaos”, Catholic spiritual writer; 100 One NCCW Birthday Celebration, and Organizational Updates. This
annual convention has always been a two-day program held at a parish in the diocese. We hope you will join us on
Saturday, June 12 from 10:00am to 12:30pm in our parish hall or the meeting room where we will practice safe
distancing. Our CCW will make a $100 donation from our group, so there is no charge for you to attend.
Registration was due Friday, May 28, so please call Jane Munro at 920-291-5575 ASAP if you wish to attend.
Attention all bakers! We are asking for pies and other homemade desserts to top off our delicious chicken dinner at
our Parish Festival. Pie tins are available in the gathering space, but don’t feel limited to making pies. If pie making
isn’t your thing, bring your favorite bars, brownies, or cake for us to try!
Basket Raffle Baskets Needed
With our Parish Festival in the park a “Go” this summer, we will once again be needing
several nice baskets for our basket raffle. We are looking for baskets to contain new or
unused items please. (Save your used items, though — we will want them for our
Rummage Sale later this summer!) Anyone is welcome to put together a basket. Listed
below are some ideas to get you started. Keep in mind, that as much as we appreciate a
nice bottle of wine, we are not allowed to have any alcohol in the raffle baskets.
Remember, you can also purchase gift cards to many of our local businesses and
restaurants through our SCRIP program, and gift cards are always welcome additions to
any raffle basket. Please contact Linda Seaman at 920-290-0132 with questions, or to let
her know you will be donating a basket. Thank you!
Parish Rummage Sale - We will once again be having a parish rummage sale this summer! The sale will take place
Fri. - Sun., July 9-11, in the basement of St. Michael’s Oratory (school location). More details will
follow later with the exact times each day, but start saving your treasures now! (No big furniture,
exercise equipment, or electronic devices, please.) You may begin dropping things off at the
basement of the School / St. Michael Oratory beginning on Monday, June 28. Any questions can

Bishop Hying is embracing the occasion of the 75th
Anniversary of the Diocese of Madison in the year 2021, to
launch a bold, robust evangelizing initiative. When we
ponder the mission of the Church, it’s clear that Jesus
commands us to proclaim the Gospel to every creature—to
be disciples ourselves and to make disciples of others. And
that is what the Church has been about for 2,000 years.
There is a special urgency to that task in this present
moment, when we ponder the fact that, in any diocese in our country, roughly 70% of our baptized Catholics are not
at church on any given Sunday. There’s a myriad of reasons for that, but the bottom-line is, we need to do some-
thing about it. The task of evangelization is to proclaim in a fresh way and with a bold impulse the good news of
Jesus Christ, of God’s love for us, of the offer of salvation and forgiveness won for us by Jesus through his death
and resurrection; to speak of Jesus as if people have never heard of him, because in many cases they really
haven’t, and so the Good News is both “Good” and really “New” for us.
The above paragraph, taken directly from the Diocese of Madison’s website, describes the urgent need to share the
Good News of Christ. How can we do that? How can you, as an individual do that? Bishop Hying has laid out a bold,
four-part plan to help us both as a parish, and as individuals embrace God’s love in our own lives, and radiate that
love to others. Next week we will hand out booklets which go into detail on this initiative. It is actually a beautiful, but
rather lengthy letter from the bishop, and due to paper and printing costs, the print is rather small. Therefore, we will
also begin printing it section by section, in larger print, in the upcoming bulletins for the next month or two as well.
This will also give everyone the opportunity to reflect on each section, one at a time.
Are you ready? Let’s go make disciples!
News and Announcements
As you are all most likely aware, Father David will be
retiring in July, and we would like to thank him and
recognize his service to God and our parish by hosting a
farewell reception for him. There will be light refresh-
ments served and time to express your thanks and best
wishes to Fr. David. The reception will be held in the so-
cial hall following the 10 AM Mass on July 11, which will
be his last weekend Mass with us. Everyone is welcome!
You may also have questions about the new priests who
will be coming. The brief biography below is from
Fr. John Silva.
Father John Silva, age 43, grew up in
the small, rural village of Snake Run,
Indiana which is home to his parish,
St. Bernard. He attended Holy Cross
Catholic School and Gibson Southern
High School in nearby Fort Branch,
Indiana.
After high school, Father John received
his Bachelor’s Degree from the University of St. Thomas
in St. Paul, Minnesota and attended major seminary at
St. Mary of the Lake Seminary in Chicago, Illinois. He
was ordained a priest of Jesus Christ on June 5, 2004.
His decision to move north was due to the good friends
he made from the seminary.
Father John’s family includes his deceased mother who
was a high school counselor for 48 years and his father,
now semi-retired, who works on the family farm along-
side his older brother. Fr. John’s twin brother is an
accountant who also lives near our family farm. He is the
proud uncle of his five nieces and nephews.
