Refurbishment Update Corner
During our church refurbishment, our weekend Masses will be held at the same times at St. Lawrence. You will be greeted by the same friendly faces you see each week at Resurrection. Some things to be aware of, especially if you are not familiar with St. Lawrence church…
- Handicap parking is in front of church on Hwy 175
- General parking is in the lot across Hwy. K. Use caution when crossing the street.
- Restrooms are only handicap accessible through a basement exterior entrance with greeter’s assistance.
- Those with mobility limitations typically sit in the back of church. Let a greeter know if you would like Holy Communion brought to you.
- If at any time before, during, or after Mass you need assistance, please talk to a greeter.
- On Sunday, please disperse promptly; St. Lawrence has a 10:00 Mass. As guests, we want to respect their hospitality.
Temporary dwelling, eternal faith.

Sanctuary Crucifix
This crucifix is generating quite a bit of interest for its beauty and history. It's been moved from the east entrance to the sanctuary; a wonderful place to be viewed and appreciated! It shows how contributions can last more than a lifetime.
The German translates to "In memory of their Mother Anna by the Family of Albert Gundrum." Cemetery records show Anna M Gundrum died in1917; her husband Albert died in 1928. The couple had eleven children. Three parishioners are great-grandchildren. Maybe you know of others?
Most Recent Update
1 Peter 4:10 “As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace.”
Several members are sharing personal time and specialty skills for our ongoing project.
Jeff, Andy and Gary Konrath are painting the priest’s sacristy as well as both side entrances. Warren Rate offered to reupholster sanctuary chairs, so Sandy Hottenroth assisted by choosing harmonious colors and fabric samples. Jim Jazak built the new altars and ambo. Jim Schellinger built the ambry and a new credence table. Brian Hart stained the finished pieces and painted wood components. Wayne Sovinski located a pendant light that was salvaged from a church fire; it will be hung in the balcony stairwell after a bit of TLC by Gary Konrath.
While all of this is happening in Allenton, St. Lawrence Church continues to host our Resurrection Masses thanks in large part to Tim Steck. This arrangement only works because of the extra efforts of Cindy Wolf, Karin Wulff and Wayne Sovinski as main coordinators. Many of you are using your gifts in ministries to keep our schedule adequately filled, but there is always room for more helpers. Lent is a great time to recognize abilities God bestowed on each of us. Using those gifts can lead to personal growth while serving God in our faith community. God will bless you for saying “YES, I can help with that!” We are companions on the journey.
Resurrection church has been closed for 15 weeks. Things are coming together so nicely. We remain on schedule and look forward to the day we can rejoice at our homecoming! (From 03/01/2026 Bulletin)

Blessed Palms
If you have blessed palms at home that you wish to discard, please bring them to church. There is a bin in the vestibule (main entrance) at St. Lawrence Church where they can be placed.
Blessed Catholic palms, as blessed sacramentals, should never be thrown in the trash. The proper method of disposal is to return them to church for burning, or to personally burn or bury them (e.g., in a garden or wooded area) to respectfully return them to nature.
Return your Rice Bowl to the basket in back of St. Lawrence Church or the Emmaus Center no later than March 22, 2026. (Please do not return to St. Peter as they have a separate Rice Bowl collection.)
