Parish Email Update
We are in the process of implementing our new Parish Data System. It has a feature that allows us to send emails directly through the program. You may notice parish related email messages in your Inbox from Resurrection Church sent from 'notifications@ondemandmail.com'. These are legitimate emails from our parish office.
Help Us Keep Our Records Current
It is important for the parish office to have up-to-date contact information for all parishioners. Please notify the parish secretary at office@resurrectionallenton.org with any updates to your street address, phone number, and/or email address.
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.

Most Recent Update
This week, it’s all about the floors. The stairs and choir floor are being refinished. Timing and aligning schedules allow Sandmasters of Saukville to beautify the balcony area. Underlayment and luxury vinyl tile (LVT) will be laid in the nave. The sanctuary will have ceramic tile. . Some have asked how refurbishment contractors were found. Keep in mind, multiple quotes were sought for the primary goals of this project. God certainly led us! As talk of our interior redo began years ago, calls were made to recently updated area churches requesting vendor and subcontractor lists. Church visits provided an overall look at completed work. However, conversations with parishioners who’ve gone through the process were most insightful for an honest performance review. God opens doors through communication.
PAINTING: In 2023, Krause Konstruction was doing masonry work on our bell tower. When asked if he knew a good church painter, he mentioned Riehle Decorating.
PEWS: New or refinished? We met with a Pennsylvania company to price new pews. They told us our pews are solid and in relatively good condition. A good number of church visits helped us realize our pews are fairly comfortable too. The deciding factor to refinish was due to the value of the wood in our existing pews vs fluctuating lumber prices of new wood. A Wisconsin company, Wood Renovators was chosen from an online search.
FLOORING: Schnorenberg’s was referred by parishioners who have had flooring work done in their homes. Walter’s Flooring supplied the ceramic tile. Our tile contractor was mentioned by a neighbor who stopped to chat while taking a walk. She raved about the beautiful tile work her brother does. This was before we even knew we’d be looking for a tile installer. Remembering this conversation, Rodney Wagner was asked and agreed to work on our church project. (From 02/22/2026 bulletin)
TRY SOMETHING NEW FOR LENT THIS YEAR
There are numerous opportunities and resources available to assist you on your faith journey.
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.
CRS Rice Bowls
Pick up your family’s CRS Rice Bowl from one of the church entrances. We are asking you to use this Rice Bowl to collect pocket change during Lent. Catholic Relief Services receives 75% of the donations for work around the world. Twenty-fiver percent (25%) helps hunger and poverty in our local area.
CRS Rice Bowl invites Catholics and faith communities in the United States to encounter God and our global family throughout Lent by practicing the pillars of prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Visit crsricebowl.org to learn more.
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.)
