The memo notes that all references to masking have been removed from the protocols. This includes no longer strongly suggesting that the faithful wear masks during any Mass or parish event in the diocese. Also, Mass presiders and distributors of the Eucharist no longer need to be masked while distributing Communion. For the complete memo please follow this link.

Our Women Walking With Purpose monthly coffee connect will be held on Tuesday, October 5th at 6:30 p.m. in the church narthex. I have enclosed video links for both Bible studies to view before Tuesday's meeting in order for us to maximize our time together. The video will be available for viewing at 6 p.m. in the conference and parlor rooms before our meeting if you did not have a chance to see it. Please remember to bring your books! We always have an extra chair if you would like to invite a friend!

Hello! My name is Brenna Peters, I am the new Faith Formation Coordinator for Holy Trinity Parish. I grew up in Manson and graduated from MNW in 2016. This past spring I graduated from Benedictine College with my degree in Sociology. I’m very excited to be back around here working within this parish community and I can’t wait to witness all the amazing things that our Lord will bring about!

We are looking for skilled individuals who can help refinish various liturgical items and tables from our former worship sites that we would like utilized in our new church. We’ll provide the stain and varnish and can drop off and pick the items from people's homes. If you or someone you know is interested in helping restore some of these items please contact Hiedi Touney at hiedit@fdcatholic.com or via phone at 515-955-6077 ext 2036

We're thrilled that Walking With Purpose ministry will be able to meet in person for the next Coffee Connect on Saturday, February 6th! Click for more information!
