Dear Saint Teresa Parishioners, We are all encouraged to attend Sunday’s Parish Picnic. Location is a little different this year: we’ll be on the school playground/parking lot (though we plan to return to our “block party” style in coming years). Men’s Club will provide hot dogs and hamburgers. Bring table settings for your family and a dessert or salad to …

Dear Saint Teresa Parishioners, Feels like we begin every e-mail with, “things are picking up!” and it’s not wrong, but it’s getting repetitive, isn’t it? Perhaps it feels that way because events are taking place now that we had to cancel last year. School is going strong. Our Titular Feast Day is October 1st. The parish picnic is October 3rd. …

Dear Saint Teresa Parishioners, Hello, September! The wonderful sounds of Fall are here: Pius’s marching band in the mornings, children playing outdoors and at recess, and Friday night football games. Now this is Nebraska, so we all know that Summer will throw at least one more temperature-tantrum (get it?) before Autumn pushes it out, but we’re almost there! We look …

Dear Saint Teresa Parishioners, Thanks for tuning in this week! Last week’s regularly scheduled parish e-mail—and this week’s office hours—were interrupted by an unscheduled COVID quarantine for my children, during which I temporarily became a stay-at-home mom again. Fear not: the patients have recovered, their siblings (and parents) did not become ill, and the quarantine is over. Thanks to all …

Dear Saint Teresa Parishioners, Thanks for taking the time to look over the new announcements. After this weekend’s 8am and 10am Masses, the Legion of Mary will be hosting refreshments in the courtyard. A new session of Eucharistic Adoration begins this weekend (if you want to keep your hour, there is nothing you need to do at this time). We …

Dear Saint Teresa Parishioners, Things are picking up with as we approach the end of summer and thus the start of the school year (first day: August 16th). Men’s Club and Altar Society meetings resume in September—keep an eye on the calendar. There are still openings for St. Teresa Preschool and for Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (see announcements below). …

Dear Saint Teresa Parishioners, One can’t help but comment on the weather. The Dog Days of Summer are upon us. Why do we say Dog Days?  The term/idea evolved from “the heliacal rising of the star system Sirius” which is also known as the dog star, or Canis Majoris. Here in Nebraska, the rising of this constellation coincides with hot, …
