St Catherine of Siena Catholic Church, Ripon Wisconsin

• The Conclave to discern and select the new Pope is scheduled to begin May 7, 2025. We might think we have nothing to do with this, but there is something that we can all do – PRAY.  As in all things, and especially in things we seemingly have no control, we can pray.  Here is an opportunity to “adopt” a cardinal (one of those who will be at the Conclave).  Whether the cardinal is up for election or there “just” to vote, they can use our prayers for guidance by the Holy Spirit.  Here is website that can give you the name of a Cardinal to pray for as well as some information about the person.  There are also suggestions on how to pray for the Cardinal(s).

• Also, we would like to let you know that Mass on Tuesday and Thursday evenings will remain in the Church at 5:15 until further notice. AND Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament will also continue on Thursday evening.  It will begin at the end of Mass and continue until 7:00 PM with a simple blessing and reposition.  Please come join us for any or all of these prayer experiences.  Pray for the Conclave, pray for the world, pray for our country, pray for your own needs, or just come and sit in the presence of our Lord.
