News and Events

Ministry Spotlight:

Eucharistic Ministers

Eucharistic ministers assist the Priest in the distribution of Holy Communion while showing the greatest reverence of the Most Holy Eucharist in their demeanor, their attire, and the way they handle the consecrated Body and Blood of our Lord." The schedule is done twice a year, January - June, and July -December. Volunteers choose Saturday or Sunday Mass, whether they are able and willing to do both the body and the precious cup, and if they are able to distribute to the choir loft. They are also given the guidelines on what to do. If you would be interested in being a Eucharistic Minister, please contact the Parish Office.

Summer Masses are returning to St. Matthias:

May 5, June 2, July 7, August 4 and September 1

LOVE ONE ANOTHER CAPITAL CAMPAIGN UPDATE

We have contracted with Gilbertson’s Stained Glass in Lake Geneva to repair three stained-glass windows in most need at a cost of $99,700. These windows show deflecting and buckling and a lot of paint loss. You may have noticed a missing stained-glass window near the St. Joseph statue at the front of church. The window was removed on Thursday, March 5 with an approximate return date of 6-8 weeks. The other windows to be repaired are the 2 white/yellow windows on the south side of the church.

As part of the process each of the 25 windows in church was evaluated. A number of the windows are currently in good shape and have been placed on a watch list.

All the windows in the church are original from 1880 and have had very few, in any, repairs in 145 years.

Your generous donations to the Love One Another campaign have made it possible for us to continue in the footsteps of our ancestors. Thank you!

Quilts of Valor

We are compiling a list of service members or living veterans who served. If there is someone from our parish, either yourself or nominate someone, please click here for a Request Form as we would like to start presenting A Quilt of Valor® (QOV). It is awarded to a Service Member or Veteran who has served our country with bravery, honor and dedication. The Quilt says unequivocally, “Thank you for your service and sacrifice in serving our nation.” St. Luke Sew Blessed Quilters of Slinger is grateful to have a group of women from surrounding churches that faithfully sew and make these beautiful quilts for our veterans. If there is anyone interested in joining them, you are more than welcome; please contact Donna Gross 262-707-5730. And if anyone is interested in helping the St. Luke Blessed Quilters defray costs for the Quilts of Valor for fabrics and supplies please place in the box marked Quilts of Valor or mailed to St. Luke Sew Blessed Quilters, 4860 Arthur Rd, Slinger, WI 53086.
