My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Our Family of Parishes will be offering the Totus Tuus Program from July 6th to the 10th at St John Vianney. Totus Tuus (Totally Yours) is a fun and energetic parish based summer catechetical program, for both grade school age children and junior and senior high school youth. They gather together college students and seminarians into teams of four in order to train them and send them out on the road to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ in various parishes throughout the Archdiocese of Omaha. Their youthfulness, energy, and ability to witness to the Faith make the teachers particularly effective with children and young people.
Throughout the years Totus Tuus has succeeded in reaching out to children and youth in order to help them know and love the Lord Jesus Christ. We have also tried to help local parishes by providing a fun and strong catechetical program. We hope to continue this in the future as long as our Lord permits.
The work to remove the vent fan in the gym at Mary Our Queen is complete. This involved removing the old vent fan, sealing off the walls both inside and outside the gym and resurfacing the outside wall with a stone finish. Thank you to MOQ Athletic Club for covering the cost of this project.
We will be installing a platform and guardrails around the gym rooftop HVAC unit. This is a fall protection system that is required for the safety of those servicing our HVAC unit.
The work for the heating boiler replacement for Mary Our Queen School and the Kenny Center is going smoothly. This week, we had the pumps and the pipes reconfigured in the mechanical room basement to make way for the new boilers and expansion tank to be installed.
We are currently remodeling four classrooms on the upper floor at Mary Our Queen School with new flooring, ceiling tile and lighting. Each classroom will also have a new projector and screen installed.
There will be some mud jack work on a couple of concrete walkways and the entrance of the church at St John Vianney next week. This is to prevent trip hazards from occurring. We are also actively sealing up all the cracks on our concrete pavement around the building at both Parishes.
As always, we continue to make improvements to our Parish facilities and keep you updated.
Please note that with our summer schedule, the Parish and School offices will be closed on Fridays. The office hours at our Family of Parishes are Monday to Thursday from 8am to 4pm and the school office hours will be Monday to Thursday from 8am to 3pm. Please note that for the month of July the School office will be closed.
Blessings for the summer,
Fr. Marc
