TWENTY-EIGHTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
We are so grateful to all those in our parish who volunteer their
time and talent to make our Parish a place of welcome. One of
those groups who work behind the scenes is the Parish Pastoral
Council. Our Parish Council is made up of a mixture of
parishioners and students.
As a council we listen and respond to the Spirit of God at each meeting
and prayerfully consider what the Spirit of God is calling the parish to
be and become.
The council provides the means whereby lay members of the parish,
respond to their baptismal commitment and work closely with the
pastor and parish team, for the common good and mission of the
parish.
In dialogue, members of the council and the pastor come to an
understanding of the spiritual as well as physical concerns and needs of
the people of the parish and broader community.
All deliberations are guided by a spirit of prayer, openness to the Spirit,
and be in accord with diocesan policies and emphases, as well as the
teachings of the Catholic Church.
When faced with a major parish issue or concern, all members of the
parish should be provided with an opportunity to learn more about the
concern and have an opportunity to share with parish leaders, their
reactions and suggestions for dealing with it.

NORBERTINE CENTER FOR SPIRITUALITY
The Conrad J. Kratz, O. Praem.,
Abbey Lecture Series –
Enkindling Hope: A Calling of the
Church in an Age of Soft Despair
Christianity is quintessentially a religion of hope
because it exultantly proclaims that in God we meet
a love that no darkness or evil can ever defeat, a
love so faithfully resilient that it never dies. And
yet, of the three theological virtues, hope is the most
neglected and overlooked. This presentation will
address the meaning and preciousness of hope,
things that threaten hope, what hope asks of us, and
why we should never hope for anything less than
what God’s love desires for us.
Thursday, October 30 at 6:30 – 8 p.m., reception to follow
Presenter: Dr. Paul Wadell, Professor of Religious Studies,
St. Norbert College
Cost:
Free will offering (suggested donation $5)
Registration required by October 27

Who: Members of the St. Norbert College Parish
Where: Old St. Joe’s
When: October 12th (distribution)
through October 26th (collection)
Why: This fundraiser raises money for the MOM’s
Home, which is a branch of the A&A Alexandrina
Green Bay Pregnancy Help Center. The MOM’s
home provides a warm, safe, and secure
environment to expectant mothers and mothers with
young children. It offers single mothers continuing
education courses, while providing them with food
and shelter. Without these burdens, the mothers can
focus on bettering their family situations, finding
employment, and establishing healthy habits for
themselves and their children.
How: Fill your bottle with donations large or small.
Make checks payable to St. Norbert CollegeKnights for Life. Return your bottle to Old St. Joes
on Sunday, October 26th.
This event is sponsored by the St. Norbert College Pro-Life
Group, Knights for Life. On behalf of all the mothers and
children who will benefit from this collection, we thank you for
your generosity.

Biese-Van Sistine Family
Alissa Van Sistine is originally from De Pere and has
attended mass at Old St. Joe’s since she was little. John
Biese grew up in Appleton. The couple met and began
dating in 2004 while they attended college in Milwaukee. After graduation, John's job led him to Chicago
and Alissa followed him there two years later.
John and Alissa were married in 2011 and have a son,
Quintin (1). The family moved “home” shortly after
Quintin was born and currently lives in Allouez.
John recently started a new job with Faith Technologies
in Green Bay and Alissa is a teacher at Altmayer in
East De Pere.
We thank God for ...
A healthy, happy son despite a premature birth. We are
thankful to be back in Green Bay raising Quintin
among a family who adores him and who is there for us
for whatever we may need.
Hope you can join us for this day trip! I
talked to the conference leader last week
and they were sitting at just under
300 people registered! If you can't make
this event, I hope to see you at another in
the near future.
Yours in Christ,
