Late this past week (Thursday), we sent out a letter to all registered households in the thirteen parishes of this Carroll County cluster. The letter outlines the future plan for the alignment of these parishes into two separate clusters with two separate pastors. (The letter will come in an envelope with a return address from either St. Lawrence Parish or Holy Spirit Parish in Carroll.) If you have not already received the letter, you should be receiving it within the next day or two. As always, please continue to pray for Ministry 2025 in our county and throughout the Diocese of Sioux City. Fr. Kevin Richter [A copy of the letter will be posted here in the near future.]
