Holy Family Catholic Community Fond du Lac

Holy Family Catholic Community, is an active, multi-cultural, parish of 5,600 families in Fond du Lac WI. We are one of the northernmost parishes in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee and on the south shore of Lake Winnebago, the largest inland lake in Wisconsin.

Our parish is a city-wide parish with 25 Masses every week, 12 of them on weekends at four worship sites. The sites are:

Holy Family St. Mary, in the downtown area

Holy Family Sacred Heart, on the west side of town hosts our Christian Formation building and Youth Center.

Holy Family, our largest church, is on the east side of town where we also have our parish offices.

Holy Family St. Peter, a bit farther east, our “country church” in the township of St. Peter

Our four priests form an In Solidum Team of four pastors leading by consensus. They are advised by a Pastoral Council and a Financial Council of both elected and ex-oficio parishioners. The four Commissions of the Pastoral Council and are managed by employee-directors, support staff and volunteers. Each Commission is responsible for a specific area of parish activity: Worship, Formation, Human & Pastoral Concerns, and Stewardship.

Holy Family Parish collaborates closely with St. Mary Springs Academy, a K – 12, a regional Catholic School which uses two of our school buildings for the primary and middle schools and all also our churches for School Masses and other religious services. We collaborate with the Presentation of Mary parish in North Fond du Lac and with the other Catholic parishes in Fond du Lac County. With them we provide Catholic Masses and Formation services for the prisoners of Taycheedah Correctional Institution. We have two “Sister Parishes,” one on Chicago's South Side, Our Lady Gate of Heaven, and one in North-eastern Nicaragua, Santa Rosa.
