Divine Mercy Parish
O’Connor, the first bishop of the Diocese of Madison. On June 12, 1959, Father Wilfred J. Schuster was named as founding pastor. At that time, the parish served approximately 200 families.

Recently, we welcomed 24 members into our parish family. These individuals were received into the Church at the Easter Vigil, where they celebrated the Sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation.
We look forward to walking with them as they grow in their Catholic faith!

Celebrating our Parish’s Feast Day today!!
The Second Sunday of Easter is Divine Mercy Sunday!
This feast was instituted at the request of Our Lord, who revealed to St. Faustina Kowalska that He desired a day that honors His great mercy in a special way. In her Diary, St. Faustina records these words of Jesus during one of His visits to her: "My daughter, tell the whole world about My inconceivable mercy. I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and a shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy. The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. On that day are opened all the divine floodgates through which graces flow. Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet." Divine Mercy Sunday was formally instituted by Pope St. John Paul II in the year 2000.
Let us give thanks today for Jesus' gift of mercy. May it be our refuge and our hope in the midst of a sinful and broken world, and may we always trust in the Lord's eagerness to offer us His mercy when we fail in our path of devotion and discipleship.
Today is a parish feast day; we pray for Divine Mercy Parish! O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of mercy for us, I trust in You!
