From Melissa Hunter, Director of Faith Formation “For this purpose I have come.” “Purpose” is the name of the program/curriculum we use to get our 8th graders ready for the Sacrament of Confirmation. “What’s the purpose?” is an exasperation that plagues many people. “I didn’t do it on purpose!” is commonly heard when the behaviors of children are called into question. Jesus uses that word in today’s Gospel to explain to His disciples why it is time to travel and do more teaching. He understands that doing so is the reason He is God Incarnate. He has a mission. He knows it. He lives accordingly. What about you and me? Are we willing to sit with the uncomfortable question of what our purpose might be, in order to discover the answer? Do we believe that God willed our existence intentionally? That He has something specific in mind for us? Do we let what God shows us about ourselves determine how we navigate the choices that make up our lives? HELP OUR NEIGHBORS IN NEED! For what purpose are you called?

  • Black Catholic March for Racial Justice
    Black Catholic March for Racial Justice Dear Friends, I hope this email finds you and your families both healthy and safe. Black Catholic March for Racial Justice to be held in Milwaukee This Saturday, July 11, 2020, beginning at 9:30 a.m., the Black Catholic Ministry Commission and the Archdiocese will host a Black Catholic March for Racial Justice. The march begins at St. Francis of Assisi Parish (1927 Vel R. Phillips Ave, Milwaukee). We ask that participants begin gathering at 9 a.m. We recommend that people wear facemasks and bring water bottles. The march will proceed to the former site of Blessed Martin de Porres Parish (7th St. and Galena) and conclude at St. Benedict the Moor Parish (930 W State St., Milwaukee), for a distance of 1.3 miles. The initiative of the march came from Fr. Michael Bertram, OFM Cap., pastor of St. Francis of Assisi parish, and the event is supported by the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. The Black Catholic March for Racial Justice will seek to: Publically support and stand in solidarity with African Americans and members of the Black community, who suffer racial injustice. Denounce the sin of racism and racial injustice. Commemorate the commitment of the Catholic Church in Milwaukee to support African Americans and the Black communities through historic ministerial efforts of the following parishes: St. Benedict the Moor, Blessed Martin de Porres, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Boniface, and more recently St. Martin de Porres and All Saints. If you have any question, please contact Fessahaye Mebrahtu our Director of Black Catholic & Ethnic Ministries at [email protected].
