We're so excited to announce that we will be bringing back donuts, COVID-19 style! Sadly, we cannot have Coffee & Donuts as it used to be, but thanks to the generous donations of several Parishioners, we will be able to make a few batches of donuts and bag them up by the half-dozen (all bags will have exactly the same kinds of donuts) to give out at the 9 am (in the Stanley Centre) and 11 am Masses on Sunday, November 1st. We hope to continue to do this monthly, but it will all depend on funding the project. We have a great group of volunteers coming in to make/bag the donuts and clean up the kitchen, but we still need to purchase the ingredients. If you're interested in helping to support the "Bring Back the Donuts" project, please contact Deb Dozeman (ddozeman@stcatherinesiena.org).

Due to COVID-19, most of our current parish programs are currently suspended through August 2020. Daily Mass (Monday through Friday), weekend Masses, and “drive-in” Confessions are held each week (please see the calendar below for details). We have not yet made any decisions about programming beyond August 2020, but hope to be able to do so soon. We know that Sacramental programs such as Children’s Faith Formation, Confirmation preparation, and RCIA will continue in some form, and Sacraments like First Communion and Confirmation (previously scheduled for Spring 2020) will be rescheduled soon. Please like/follow us on Facebook and continue to check our website for additional updates as we learn more. Thank you for your patience during these unusual times!

During the month of May, volunteers at St. Catherine made over 2500 donuts (leftover from Sunday's Coffee & Donuts Ministry) for our First Responders throughout Portage and Kalamazoo. Children from our Children's Faith Formation program donated their time and their artistic skills to decorate the donut boxes for our community heroes. Thank you to all who donated their time to make and deliver donuts, as well as those who worked hard to decorate all of the donut boxes!
