Welcome to St. Andrew & St. Thomas Churches
Faith. Passion. Community. Worship. Ss. Andrew and Thomas Churches are two historically rich churches in Tennyson and Potosi, Wisconsin, respectively. Since their merging in 1970, Ss. Andrew and Thomas Churches have shared many activities together, from fish fries to Confirmations, and many other events. Ss. Andrew and Thomas Churches support each other in the worship of the one true God, Jesus Christ (c.f. John 17:3), and are proud to support their school, Ss. Andrew and Thomas School. Becoming a parish member means joining a family who, each day, are committed to following the one true God, Jesus Christ, and to imploring the help of their apostolic patrons, Ss. Andrew and Thomas, who gave their lives for the love of God.

GRIEFSHARE AT ST.CLEMENT Grief after the death of a loved one can be overwhelming. One can experience a host of feelings, thoughts, behaviors and physical reactions that can make one question one’s own mental wellbeing. There is the notion that, “time heals all wounds.” This is untrue. Time can bring healing, but it’s often what we do during this time that brings about relief and renewed hope in the grief journey. It has also been said that, “grief shared is grief diminished.” All who have been involved in the GriefShare bereavement support group can attest to this truth. Through video, discussion and sharing, GriefShare is a 12-session process that brings people together who have experienced loss and who seek support that is confidential and who also seek healing in their unique journey. Our next GriefShare support group will begin on August 21 from 6-8 PM at St. Clement Church. To register on-line, go to: www.griefshare.org and choose “find a group.” You will see St. Clement listed. If our day/time are not the best for you, you will also see other offerings that may be a better fit. You can also contact Marcia Hampton at 608-732-8849 if you have questions or want to register.Read More -

Have you ever felt like what you are doing or where you are at just isn’t really your destination in life? Could it be that you are not just called to a new job or a different apartment, but to a whole new life? Might religious life be the life for you? I am Sister Kathleen Murphy and that whole new life came to me when I became a Franciscan Sister of Christian Charity! It wasn’t a long journey from my farm home in the Diocese of Madison to our beautiful motherhouse in Manitowoc, and yet it was a chance to experience a God-given adventure. If you are up to enter on such a journey, visit my Community at https://fscc-calledtobe.org or even think about an in person stay with us here in Manitowoc, WI. As the Gospel urges, “Come and see!”Read More -
