Today, we remember with gratitude the brave heroes who gave their lives in service to our nation. 🇺🇸

As we observe Memorial Day, we pause to honor their sacrifice, pray for their families, and give thanks for the freedoms we are blessed to enjoy.

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.” — Matthew 5:9

May we never forget those who courageously answered the call to serve others before themselves. God bless our fallen heroes, our veterans, and the United States of America. ❤️

Reminder: The Menominee Food Pantry will be closed, Monday, May 25th, in observance of Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

We will reopen during our normal hours on our next scheduled pantry day.

Thank you for your understanding as we take time to honor and remember the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. May God bless our military families and all who serve.

Today we are filled with deep gratitude as we reflect on the incredible success of the Stamp Out Hunger Drive in Menominee.

Because of the generosity and teamwork of our community, 7,900 pounds of food was collected, unpacked, and safely stored at the Menominee Food Pantry.

We want to offer a heartfelt thank you to:

* Menominee Knights of Columbus, for your continued service and support
* Menominee High School student runners, for your energy and willingness to step in and help wherever needed
* Our dedicated St. Vincent de Paul volunteers, who worked tirelessly through every box and bag
* The Postal Workers Union, for organizing and carrying out this nationwide effort right here in our community
* And most importantly, the citizens of Menominee, whose generosity filled mailbox after mailbox with hope for our neighbors in need

This was more than a food drive—it was a reminder of what happens when a community comes together in love and service. Every item donated represents a family cared for, a table strengthened, and dignity preserved.

We are so grateful for each hand that gave, sorted, lifted, and delivered. Thank you, Menominee, for showing what it means to live out compassion in action.

As Mother’s Day comes to a close,
we place every mother gently into the hands of Mary,
the Mother of God.

For the mothers rocking babies through sleepless nights,
for the single mothers carrying burdens quietly and bravely,
for the married mothers building homes with love and sacrifice,
for the grandmothers whose prayers still hold generations together,
for the stepmothers who chose love with open hearts,
and for the empty nest mothers learning to let go while still loving deeply.

Tonight we remember that Mary knew it all—
joy and worry, hope and heartache,
holding close and letting go.
She treasured every moment given to her Son,
just as mothers treasure the lives entrusted to them.

So as this day ends,
may every mother know she is seen by God,
strengthened by grace,
and wrapped in the tender love of Our Blessed Mother.

Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for all mothers tonight. 🤍

Easter Sunday

Christ is Risen! Alleluia!

After 40 days of preparation, we celebrate the Resurrection — the victory of life over death, light over darkness, hope over despair.

Lent was never about deprivation. It was about resurrection.

He is Risen indeed.

Holy Saturday

Today is a quiet day.

Jesus lies in the tomb. The Church waits in silence.

Holy Saturday teaches us how to wait with hope — even when God feels silent.

The story is not over.

Good Friday

Today we stand at the foot of the Cross.

We fast. We pray. We venerate the Cross.

There is no Mass today because the Bridegroom has been taken away.

“But He was pierced for our transgressions…” — Isaiah 53:5

Good Friday reminds us how deeply we are loved.
