History of our Parish Family's Journey of Faith: 

In 2022, the pastors of Our Lady of Lourdes, St. Adalbert and Holy Cross identified key members of the parish to sit on a Strategic planning team to advise and help navigate our way through this new reality set forth by the Archdiocese of Omaha. Many meetings were held with both the strategic team as well as a broader team of parishioners and staff to ensure as many of our bases were covered as possible. 

We then held a series of Parish Town hall meetings at both churches to communicate decisions and gather feedback. We submitted our proposal to the Archdiocese of Omaha, but it was rejected. The Archdiocese required additional changes to our mass schedules and staffing requirements under the new plan. The strategic team in union with our pastors made difficult decisions and cuts where required to comply with the diocese new requirements. 

On July 1, 2023, our parish family became official under the leadership of our pastor, Fr. Vitalis Anyanike.
