JOB CORNER

Whether you are looking to fill an open position in your company, or are in need of work, you can look here to find St. Pius X parishioners who may have the skills you require, or the perfect job to fit your skills.

Job Seekers Meetings are held most Mondays, at 1:00 p.m. in the North Narthex. All are welcome.

If your company is hiring, please contact Deacon Rick at 733-0575, and we will post the position, or pass the information on to qualified parishioners seeking work.

Pray for Healing

Are you or your loved ones in need of physical, emotional, or spiritual healing? Prayer can help. Every Sunday, Healing Prayer Ministry Teams are available after the 8:30 a.m. Mass in the Brides Room, to pray with people. IF you are unable to make it on Sunday, you may also make an appointment for another time.

Please call the parish office at 733-0575 for contact information

Kwik Trip Gas Cards

Kwik Trip has increased their program to the parish that allows us to purchase their gas cards at a 10% return to the parish instead of 5%! That means St. Pius gets $10 for every $100 spent on gas cards. These gas cards can be used to purchase gas, car washes, and anything in the Kwik Trip convenience store itself, at any Kwik Trip location in Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota.

To use the card, simply swipe the card at the pump and press the “credit” button when prompted. You do not need to worry about over filling because the pump will shut off automatically when the card limit is reached. The card can then be discarded.

Kwik Trip cards may be purchased after Saturday and Sunday morning Masses or at the Parish Office. You can pre-order your cards by following the instructions on our Kwik Trip page. Please consider this opportunity to earn cash for the parish.
