Dear Parishioners: A suggestion has been brought to me, the trustees and the parish council about the idea of adding a gathering room at St. Columbkill Church. We have been advised that we need to do something different with our handicap ramp. One idea is to have it inside a new addition on the parking lot side of our building, which could include a car port outside of the building to unload passengers. We have had some money donated for church projects and we hope to consider this project. We will be having an informational meeting Sunday, December 1, at 2:00pm at St. Columbkill, to see if parishioners have an interest in exploring this. Any questions, call Father Kasel or Bob Eppen.
God bless your day! In Christ through Mary, Fr. Kasel
