Need Support?
How can we help?
When things are going smoothly, it is easy to show up to Mass on Sunday, spend a few minutes in prayer and go on with your day. Our pastoral services and those of the Diocese of Green Bay are here for you when things are not going well. You may be in need of physical, mental, emotional, spiritual or financial need. We are here for you! Our team is available for many different needs and the areas below are just to get you started. Contact our office, Deacon Dennis or Janet for further direction.
NEED IMMEDIATE HELP: Dial 211
When you need help and don’t know where to turn, 211 is your one-stop connection to the local services you need, like utility assistance, housing, food, elder care, crisis intervention, alcohol and other drug recovery and much more.

Mental Health Support
**If this is an emergency, please hang up and dial 988 for the Wisconsin Suicide & Crisis Hotline**
Mental health is a significant issue for many people today. Depression, anxiety, PTSD, post-partum depression, financial and career insecurity, family stress and so much more are issues that our parish community is committed to acknowledging and supporting. God’s healing love and mercy is available to all. Coping and healing is possible through support structures as well as prayer.

Funeral Planning
Death is a part of our journey, both joyful and sorrowful. The very nature of loss makes the death of a loved one a stressful time. Let us help you plan your loved one’s funeral or even pre-plan your own funeral. We have walked with many families and can give you the wisdom and comfort of experience.

St. Vincent de Paul Society
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul Green Bay is a worldwide organization of lay Catholics, following Christ’s call to serve neighbors in need. These volunteers offer tangible assistance to those in need on a person-to-person basis through a Home Visit. It is this personalized involvement that makes the work of the Society unique. This aid may take the form of intervention, consultation, or often through direct dollar or in-kind service. An essential principle of the Society’s work is to provide help while conscientiously maintaining the confidentiality and dignity of those who are served. The Society recognizes that it must assume, also, a role of advocacy for those who are defenseless or voiceless.

Help Line Assistance Hours:

Need an Annulment
The Tribunal of the Diocese of Green Bay works with those who wish to annul a prior, terminated marriage, by assisting them through the annulment process. We seek just solutions based on Scripture, the Magisterial Teaching of the Church, and the Church’s Code of Canon Law.
While there is no guarantee an annulment can be granted, petitioners can be assured that we will accompany them through this process with care and concern, whatever the outcome may be. Our staff is committed to compassionately working with individuals, praying for them as we do, and genuinely helping them move forward with their lives in relationship with Jesus, His Church, and the sacraments.
To set a time when we can provide you with more information, contact the Tribunal office directly during regular business hours at (920) 272-8167.
