Our Story
Our Parishes | Pastoral Council | Priests & Staff | Financial Reports | Pastor Updates | Communication
We, the Catholic Community of Waukesha, transformed by the Holy Spirit, worship God;
follow Christ through Gospel-centered lives; celebrate our diversity,
welcome, love and serve all.
Whether you are joining us for Mass, seeking a place to celebrate a holy sacrament, or a family in need of faith formation, we welcome you. We are a large community parish, but please don’t think you are not needed. Our parishes become stronger through the relationships developed among those who are involved in the life of our Church. We want to help you find your place here so that you can grow in your relationship with God and others.
We have deep roots of faith and since our beginning, people have come together to pray, to develop relationships with other Catholics, and to serve the Church and the local Waukesha community. We are here to do what Jesus asks – to make disciples, and you will be invited to develop the habits of a disciple.

Pastoral Council
Question? Comment? Concern? Suggestion? Email Pastoral Council: pastoralcouncil@ccwauk.org
The citywide Pastoral Council provides the means for the four Catholic parishes in Waukesha to fulfill the pastoral mission of Jesus and the Church. It does this by:
developing Catholic identity, promoting evangelization, and fostering stewardship.
striving to build a community of disciples who recognize their baptism calls them to lives of holiness, witness and service.
taking into account the needs and priorities of parishioners, the Archdiocese, the broader community, and the world.
The citywide Pastoral Council is composed of Fr. Matthew Widder, Pastor, and twenty-four (24) members; three (3) at-large members from each parish for a total of twelve (12) at-large members, and the following ex officio members; the one (1) pastor and three (3) associate pastors assigned to the four parishes and two (2) trustees from each parish for a total of eight (8) trustees.
Standing committees/commissions make regular reports and appropriate recommendations to the Council. The Pastoral Council meets on the third Wednesday of the month, currently in the Vercelli House on the St. William campus. Parishioners from all parishes are encouraged to attend.
