Bishop Folda joined us on July 11, the feast of our patron, St. Benedict, blessed the new site of St. Benedict Parish and participated in the groundbreaking ceremony.

Future home of St. Benedict: Front Street and St. Anne Avenue. |
We gathered together on St. Anne Avenue. After Bishop Folda’s blessing, Bishop Folda, Fr. Jasinski, the members of the Building Committee, Mike Gallagher, the Construction Manager representing MBA, and Kory Peterson, Mayor of Horace, broke ground on the new site. Our plans are becoming a reality.
Afterward, we had a parish picnic which was cooked and served by the Men’s Group. It was a great turn out. Thank you to everyone who joined us for the celebration. For pictures, see the Groundbreaking Photo Album.
