School Addion Update By Father Eric We are very excited that the St. Mary School addion will begin very soon. The 7,290 square foot addion features a cafeteria, two tutor rooms, an expansion of the kitchen, and addional storage space. The footprint of the addion will move the western edge of the school out sixteen feet. Much of the addional storage will be along the western edge of the gym. Likewise, the kitchen will be expanded to the west. The cafeteria will be off the northern edge of the cafeteria and locker room area. A rectangular courtyard similar to one with the Mary Garden will be created with Mrs. Wohlfert’s room being part of the east side and the cafeteria being the west edge. The cafeteria will create a second large space in the school for acvies – the gym being the other one. The cafeteria will be able to be divided by a curtain into two spaces in order to accommodate mulple acvies simultaneously. There will be a new set of bathrooms connected to the cafeteria so that during holiday seasons two rentals can take place at the same me or if only one rental is occurring in the gym or cafeteria the other area can be sealed off easily. The locker rooms will be reclaimed for their intended use, and per state mandate a fire suppression system will be included both in the addion and throughout the exisng school. The first meeng of the building commiee took place way back in August of 2017, so this project has been a long me in coming. At different points over the past two years, the commiee has consisted of different arrangements of Mary Enneking, Cindy Fedewa, Brent Huhn, Bill Irrer, Jan Miller, Jack Nurenberg, Jill Rademacher, Rich Rademacher, Glenn Simon, Darren Thelen, Valerie Thelen and Craig Trierweiler. I am very grateful to all of them for their hard work and experse. Many of you saw dras of the project at the school open house last August. The floor plan has remained idencal. The roof design on those dras turned out to be quite expensive and put us over budget, so it was replaced with a flat roof. Vander Kodde Construcon from Grand Rapids was awarded the general contract. As we gain the final state and diocesan approvals needed for the project, construcon should begin shortly before or aer our public groundbreaking ceremony. That ceremony will take place on Friday, May 31 st . Bishop Boyea will preside at the 8:15 Mass that morning and the groundbreaking ceremony will take place immediately aerwards. The addion is funded by the Witness to Hope Campaign, so I am grateful to all of you who pledged and have paid off or are paying off those pledges. If anyone would like to make an addional donaon to the building project (besides the Witness to Hope gi) it can be done directly to St. Mary Parish’s Capital Improvement Fund. Please join us on the 31 st in celebrang a historic day in the life of St. Mary School and Parish and in the life of the Westphalia community.

School Addion Update By Father Eric

We are very excited that the St. Mary School addion will begin very soon. The 7,290 square foot addion features a cafeteria, two tutor rooms, an expansion of the kitchen, and addional storage space. The footprint of the addion will move the western edge of the school out sixteen feet. Much of the addional storage will be along the western edge of the gym. Likewise, the kitchen will be expanded to the west. The cafeteria will be off the northern edge of the cafeteria and locker room area. A rectangular courtyard similar to one with the Mary Garden will be created with Mrs. Wohlfert’s room being part of the east side and the cafeteria being the west edge. The cafeteria will create a second large space in the school for acvies – the gym being the other one.

The cafeteria will be able to be divided by a curtain into two spaces in order to accommodate mulple acvies simultaneously. There will be a new set of bathrooms connected to the cafeteria so that during holiday seasons two rentals can take place at the same me or if only one rental is occurring in the gym or cafeteria the other area can be sealed off easily. The locker rooms will be reclaimed for their intended use, and per state mandate a fire suppression system will be included both in the addion and throughout the exisng school.

The first meeng of the building commiee took place way back in August of 2017, so this project has been a long me in coming. At different points over the past two years, the commiee has consisted of different arrangements of Mary Enneking, Cindy Fedewa, Brent Huhn, Bill Irrer, Jan Miller, Jack Nurenberg, Jill Rademacher, Rich Rademacher, Glenn Simon, Darren Thelen, Valerie Thelen and Craig Trierweiler. I am very grateful to all of them for their hard work and experse.

Many of you saw dras of the project at the school open house last August. The floor plan has remained idencal.

Adult Steubenville Power and Purpose Conference June 7-9th

Prayers Needed in Buck v. Gordon Case

The Michigan A/orney General announced a se/lement with the ACLU

regarding a case addressing adop�on by same-sex couples. That se/lement was

widely reported as “barring state-funded adop�on agencies from refusing

LGBTQ parents.” While that se/lement included no measures against the

Catholic Chari�es agencies of the Diocese of Lansing (or any other diocese), the

se/lement communicated the State’s inten�on to cancel the contracts of

agencies unless they change their policies and began placing children with same-

sex couples or those claiming a transgender iden�ty. In April, St. Vincent

Catholic Chari�es, one of the Diocese of Lansing’s five Catholic Chari�es

agencies, sued the State of Michigan in federal court. By the lawsuit, St.

Vincent’s is asser�ng its rights to free exercise of religion, free speech, and equal

protec�on and is seeking a federal court order that would prevent the State

from viola�ng these rights. St. Vincent’s and the other plain�ffs are reques�ng

that, during the lawsuit, the court preserve the status quo and order that St.

Vincent be permi/ed to con�nue uni�ng children with adop�ve and foster

families in accord with Catholic principles. While the Diocese’s other Catholic

Chari�es agencies are not par�es to the li�ga�on, it is expected that the

li�ga�on, if successful, would likewise benefit all such agencies. Bishop Boyea

asks that we hold in prayer this case that religious liberty as well as balanced

concepts of the human person in general and the complementarity of the sexes

in par�cular be respected in our laws.

Jace and I want to thank everyone at St. Mary's Parish for

your warm welcome and all your prayers. It has been so heart

warming to feel the love and support from the en�re

congrega�on. The cards from the St. Mary's students truly

warmed our hearts, made our Easter so very special and

made us feel so loved and cared for. It was also very special to us to meet so

many people at the welcome recep�on. I can not express the thankfulness for

the love we feel from our new church community. We truly feel like family and

that is a very special thing to find in a church. Also we want to extend a very

special thank you to the RCIA team including; Deacon Chuck, Barb Spitzley,

Jenny Schneider and Mary Nurenberg. Our sponsors Jennifer Thelen and John

Lehman and Laurie Sillman for being our inspira�on to learn about the catholic

faith. We are excited to grow in our faith with our new church community and

will keep you all in our prayers as well. Thank you again from the bo/om of our

hearts for making us feel so loved, welcomed and accepted, it truly means the

world.
