RELIGIOUS EDUCATION                                         Readings for the Week
Today we hear another reading in John’s Gospel               Monday * Dn 13:1-9, 15-17, 19-30, 33-62
that teaches us about who Jesus is. The Messiah                             or 13:41c-62 / Jn 8:1-11
was coming to offer life, and Jesus demonstrates             Tuesday * Nm 21:4-9 / Jn 8:21-30
His ability to do so by raising Lazarus from the dead.       Wednesday * Dn 3:14-20, 91-92, 95 / Jn 8:31-42
This miracle is so powerful as it points to Jesus’ own       Thursday * Gn 17:3-9 / Jn 8:51-59
resurrection. Thank you, Jesus, for reminding us             Friday * Jer 20:10-13 / Jn 10:31-42
that you have a wonderful future in store for us.            Saturday * Ez 37:21-28 / Jn 11:45-56
Help us to live in trust and patience, especially dur-
                                                                           Sunday, April 5

Wonderful news! As of March 24th, 110 people have contributed $22,481.00, which is $440.00
OVER our goal of $22,041.00. Thank you so much! Together we have done it once again!
Even though we have exceeded our goal, you can still make a donation to the Bishop’s Appeal.
To make a gift please check out the materials on the tables in the church or use the pledge card you receive
at home. Our parish will receive back 50% of any amount exceeding our goal. Thank you for your gift to the
Bishop’s Appeal, for another successful campaign, and for your support of our St. Joseph Parish which is
helped in many ways by it.

Coronavirus Precautions Review
- The public celebration of the Holy Mass is suspended indefinitely. This includes both weekend
and weekday Masses. Fr. David will continue though to celebrate Mass privately.
- Since we are allowed to have one other person present at the private Masses, we have a sign-up
sheet available in the Gathering Space for one person to be present at the Mass. Priority will be given to
someone who either purchased the Mass intention or a family member or friend of the person for whom the
Mass is being said. Please meet Father David at the back door of the sacristy. Please also be sure you are in
good health at the time.
- Please note: Mass times on Sunday will be at 8:00 A.M., 9:00 A.M. and 10:00 A.M. (Spanish). This is to
allow the church to be open at 11:00 A.M. for visitation and prayer.
- The church will be open Monday to Friday from 9:00 A.M.—3:00 P.M., and on Saturday and Sunday from
11:00 A.M.—3:00 P.M., for prayer and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in the tabernacle.
 The sacrament of Confession will be available on Wednesday from 12:00 P.M.—1:00 P.M. and on
 Saturday from 2:00 P.M.—3:00 P.M.
- All other services and devotions are cancelled for the time being.
- Other sacraments and services such as Baptism, Anointing of the Sick, Matrimony, and Funerals may be cel-
ebrated, but with restrictions.
- The Parish Office will be open Monday—Friday from 8:00 A.M.—4:00 P.M., however we ask that only
those who need to come to the office to please come but take proper precautions.
- We also realize that this situation is impacting many people’s financial situation including that of our parish,
especially with no public Masses being offered. We hope that those of you who are able to please continue
your financial support of our parish by either bringing your contribution to the parish office, mailing it to our
address or placing it in the cash box by the greeting card stand in the church. It will be a great help and we
very much appreciate it.
- We will have a simplified version of the bulletin available in the holders by the doors.
- We know this is a difficult and challenging time for everyone, but let’s continue to have a spirit of prayer
and trust in God for his help and guidance to get us through this time and that ultimately a cure for the coro-
navirus can be quickly developed. Thank you and God bless you all for your patience, understanding and
prayers.

Coordinator of Religious Education Position
Our Coordinator of Religious Education for grades 1-5, Therese Kasuboski, has decided to retire, effective 30 June
2020. We are certainly grateful to Therese for everything she has done for our Religious Education program and
she will be sorely missed. With that, we are now looking for someone who would be interested in filling this posi-
tion. It is a part-time position of 20 hours per week. If you, or someone you know, would be interested in filling
this position please contact the Parish Office to let Fr. David know. We would then be able to provide more infor-
mation on what the position entails. Ideally we would like to hire someone soon so that Therese would have am-
ple time to spend time with them and teach them about the position. Thank you.
Palm Sunday
Next weekend—4/5 April is Palm Sunday. Even though there will no pub-
lic celebration of the Mass, we will have blessed palms available in the
Gathering Space for people to pick up.
Also as a reminder—please do not drop off used palms in the church.
Please dispose of them at home preferably by burning in a fireplace, wood burning stove, barbeque
grill, metal container or a pan shaped from aluminum foil.

Holy Week Tentative Schedule
We have received guidance from both Rome and Green Bay
with regard as to how the Sacred Triduum should be celebrat-
ed this year. Unfortunately, they will not be public celebrations
but the faithful are encouraged to unite in prayer during the
times they take place.

About St. Joseph
In 1870, Pope Pius IX named St. Joseph the patron of the Church. The Diocese of Green Bay is
home to the Shrine of St. Joseph located at St. Norbert College in De Pere.
But who was Joseph? He was a family man, a husband and father. A man of few words, Joseph
never spoke in the Gospels. Instead, he listened to God’s Word. To be continued next week...

inscripción disponible en el Espacio de Reunión para que una persona esté presente en la Misa. Se
dará prioridad a alguien que haya comprado la intención de la Misa o a un familiar o amigo de la per-
sona para la que se dice la Misa. Por favor, reúnase con el Padre David en la puerta trasera de la sac-
ristía. Por favor, asegúrese también de que está en buen estado de salud en el momento.
- Tenga en cuenta: El horario de misa los domingos será a las 8:00 a.m., 9:00 a.m. y 10:00 a.m.

Domingo de Ramos

También como recordatorio—por favor no deje las palmas usadas en la iglesia. Por
favor, deséchelos en casa preferiblemente quemando en una chimenea, estufa de
leña, parrilla, recipiente de metal o una sartén con forma de papel de aluminio.

Acerca de San José
En 1870, el Papa Pío IX nombró a San José el patrono de la Iglesia. La Diócesis de Green Bay es el
hogar del Santuario de San José ubicado en St. Norbert College en De Pere.
Pero, ¿quién era José? Era un hombre de familia, un marido y un padre. Un hombre de pocas
palabras, José nunca habló en los Evangelios. En cambio, escuchó la Palabra de Dios.
