Our Catholic community in North Fond du Lac at Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church will celebrate its Patronal Feast on Sunday, November 20, at the 10:00 am Mass with fellowship to follow in the church hall. While our Church celebrates the actual Feast of the Presentation of Our Lady on Monday, November 21, we will mark North Fond du Lac’s Patron by worshiping at Sunday Mass, commemorated that day as the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe. Before heading downstairs for fellowship, Mass will conclude with Solemn Exposition, a period of Eucharistic Adoration, and Solemn Benediction, as well as a hymn to Our Lady. Please join us to worship and to thank the Lord for the gift of His Mother and for our Presentation Church.

On the first Saturday of every month, the Archdiocese works with different parishes to host a prayer service which may include Mass and/or Adoration but always includes the Rosary, asking the Blessed Virgin Mary to intercede with her son, Our Lord, for the continued protection of the unborn and support for mothers and fathers facing difficult pregnancies. All are welcome to attend.
