Someare calm, some rambunctious, all of them innocent . and all of them hungry! Fortunately, our children have a steady supply of food for their bodies. But our children hunger for far more.

New members will be announced the following weekend and begin their term in July.Austin Lee -I first joined Holy Spirit Parish in 2010 as aUWSP student. I would attend mass at the Convent, and Ialways enjoyed the welcoming environment that our churchhad to offer; especially the 6PM student mass. After graduating I loved this community so much that I decided to stayin Stevens Point and I now work as a Police Officer for thecity. My wife and I got married at Holy Spirit Parish in 2018and recently our infant son was baptized there. I’ve always appreciatedthe extra effort our church puts in not only to the immediate community butalso how it responds to national and global events. I have been looking fora way to become more involved in the church as I know the same fewpeople often carry most of the load and I feel it is a good time for me tostart carrying my share. As a member of the church council, I am hopingto bring a different perspective. We have a diverse community at ourchurch, and I am hoping that my experiences not only as a new father butalso an active Police Officer will add a new and different perspective to thecouncil.My name is Annette Hultman. I grew up volunteeringthrough my Catholic schools and participating in children’s choir and as a go-to altar server at my parishthrough high school. Graduate school in speech/language pathology brought me to Stevens Point in2007, when I joined then-St. Stanislaus. Oddly enough,my family increased our involvement at Holy Spirit Parish during theCOVID-19 pandemic, which illuminated what is truly important: family andfaith. In that time I participated in ALPHA and two seasonal planningteams. I currently support our elementary religious education and am amember of the Faith Formation Committee.I am excited to be part of the spiritual renovations that have occurred atHoly Spirit and look forward to the opportunity to support continued transformation. My husband Ben and I have two sons, Noah (10) and Samuel(6). This brings the perspective of young adults and families with children,who are navigating being as well as raising the next generations of parishioners. I look forward to working with other council members to furtherdevelop the vision of Holy Spirit and create plans to make that a reality.Jim Kasukonis—My wife of forty one years, Linda, and I havetwo sons and two daughters, and six grandkiddos. I am a retiredPediatrician and since 1990 have practiced long enough to seesome of my patients become parents of yet more patients, somehere at Holy Spirit Parish! I was a catechist at St. Joseph’s,where I first received the sacraments of Eucharist and Confirmation. Later, I joined Newman Parish where I was an usher. I arrived at Holy Spirit Parish via the Newman/St. Stanislaus transition.With the complex issues facing our parish, many times there are no absolute solutions, yet the Pastoral Council can provide input towards common goals. Individuals within the Pastoral Council bring different perspectives for Fr. Steve to considerduring our ongoing evolution as a parish.As a returned Peace Corps Volunteer, teaching in The Gambia, West Africa, inthe’70’s, I lived and learned what it was like to be an outsider. All of us are“Outsiders”, to varying degrees, yet we strive to become one of the many parts ofthe Body of Christ. As a child, I was raised Methodist (although my father was adevoted Catholic), then lived for several decades as a non-believer until I converted to Catholicism over twenty five years ago.I believe that my perspectives, along with my energy and willingness to servewould be useful to the Parish Council.Hello Holy Spirit parishioners! My name is Sue Vetter and Iwould love to serve our parish by being a member of the pastoral council.A bit about myself - I was raised Catholic and raised our children in the Catholic Church. My husband, Mark and I havebeen married 42 years and raised two beautiful daughters,Sarah and Amy. We have three grandchildren and two goldenretrievers. We moved to Stevens Point in 2005 and love our new community. Wejoined Newman and have embraced the “marriage” of the two parishes that hascreated Holy Spirit parish.I would love the opportunity to serve on parish council so that I can have a frontrow seat to all of the great things that are Holy Spirit’s destiny. I am excited aboutadding the FOCUS ministry to build Point Catholic which will help build the futureof our church. The Synod discussions will provide the groundwork to create afoundation for the future of our parish. I will embrace the opportunity to be part ofbuilding that future for all members of our parish family, young and old. PleaseHello, my name is Walter Clark.
