Saint John the Baptist Catholic Church

 We would like to shine the light on one of our less visible volunteers for this month's time and talent spotlight.  Join us in showing our appreciation for Matt Rosin!
      Matt converted to the Catholic faith in April 2017 and was looking for a way to serve without standing out in front of a crowd.  Fr. David asked him if he would consider taking on the role of a sacristan.  A sacristan serves the parish community in a valuable role by making preparations for the liturgy, assisting with needs during Mass, and attending to necessary details as the liturgy concludes. The “behind the scenes” nature of the tasks is what attracted Matt to the position. 
     We thank Matt for the hours of dedication he has given towards the sanctity and reverence of our Masses.  We are lucky to have you! 

        The journey of grief is a painful process, and nobody needs to walk it alone. If you are grieving the death of a loved one or friend, we would like to encourage you to attend the special seminar and support group offered at St John the Baptist Catholic Church called GriefShare.
      This is a positive, uplifting, caring group in which you can learn how to deal with the emotions and challenges that come when a loved one dies. No matter the cause of your loved one’s death, this is an opportunity to be around people who understand what you are feeling. Through videos and sharing, you will learn ways to cope with the normal emotions that come with loss, receive valuable information on facing a variety of life situations, and gain renewed hope for the future.

Meetings are in person on Thursday Nights
Starting August 12th - 6:30 pm at SJTB

Contact Sybille Neuber (806)392-3860 or our office for more information.

Thank you to everyone who has been participating in our Portraits of Jesus Session!

Dear Parish Family Members,
     It was recently announced by Bishop Coerver that my original term of assignment as Pastor of St. John the Baptist is coming to an end on June 30, 2021.  Given the current pastoral needs of our Diocese, my assignment is being renewed for the period of only one year at a time, beginning July 1, 2021.  If anything changes with regard to my time here at St. John the Baptist, I will let you know as soon as possible.  As always, I'm grateful for you and our entire parish.  It's a joy to serve this beautiful family of faith.

Sincerely in Christ,
Fr. David
