Information

​

Weddings: Contact Fr. Diehm (563-870-4041) at least one year in advance of planning a wedding.

​

Baptisms: The August class will be held in person.  Contact Jim or Cindy Roberts (563-870-4428) before planning or setting a Baptism date.  Due to the high number of Baptisms in the Pastorate, classes fill quickly so allow several months to be scheduled into a class. All parents planning a Baptism need attend a Baptism class.  Baptisms typically do not take place during Advent or Lent.  ALL BAPTISM AND WEDDING CLASSES WILL BE HELD IN PERSON STARTING IN AUGUST.

​

Informational Changes: PLEASE HELP!!! If you have have a change to your address, phone number (such as dropping a landline), or family status, please contact the Pastorate office at 563-870-4041 or email with your new information.  This is especially important for those who had a Route 52 address change due to the highway renaming.  Thank you for helping to keep our Pastorate information up to date!
