Prayer requests of all varieties, large and small, are welcome and personal information will be kept confidential.

"Undone: Freedom for the Feminine Heart"

Do you desire to dive deeper into the freedom you were created for?


Do you feel restricted and bound by the knots of sin and shame that conceal the profound beauty of your feminine heart?


The John Paul II Healing Center's Undone - Women's Retreat is a retreat experience for women who desire healing, freedom, and deep transformation in their feminine identity. You will be immersed in truth and love in God's presence as the knots of Eve, planted in us through sin and shame, become Undone.


This retreat is for sisters, mothers, daughters, friends, or any woman who is seeking a deeper and more meaningful relationship with Mary Our Mother, and the Most Holy Trinity. The weekend includes Adoration, time for prayer, worship, small group discussion, interactive and guided meditation, and much more.

Healing the Whole Person Series

Our Healing the Whole Person video series will take place on Thursdays from 7:00 PM -9:00 PM beginning Jan. 26th through March 30th at Holy Family Church and Hall 

Facilitated by Jordan Skiff (skiffjordan@gmail.com/(608) 487-6612) and Sheila Skiff, this will be our second time offering this eight-week video series, offering Biblical and Catholic teaching on the wounds and sins that burden us, and how we can find freedom and healing in Christ.  Feedback from our Spring 2022 offering was very positive, and we hope to reach more parishioners with this teaching. 

Led by Fr. Bob Schuchts and Sr. Miriam James Heidland, the teaching is combined with personal journaling, Confession, intercessory prayer and Adoration to create a space for true healing to occur.  In addition to the eight video sessions we plan to meet for two additional Thursdays for times of prayer, Confession and Stations of the Cross.
