Bp. Morneau to bless new school in Two Rivers near Manitowoc

Bishop Robert Morneau, who served as associate pastor at Holy Redeemer in Two Rivers in the 1970s, will christen St. Peter the Fisherman Catholic School during a special Mass on Thursday evening. The event will celebrate St. Peter the Fisherman's recent purchase of the former C.C. Case Elementary School as well as the long history of Catholic schools in Two Rivers, Mishicot and Francis Creek. That history goes back to 1867 when the first Catholic school opened in Two Rivers.

The celebration will begin at 6 p.m. with historical displays set up around the school and students and parents available to provide guided tours. The Mass, set to begin at 6:30 p.m., will include a procession of students and alumni representing each of the six original schools making up St. Peter the Fisherman carrying photos of their schools. They also will participate in the readings. The Rev. Tom Reynebeau, pastor at St. Peter the Fisherman Catholic Church, will concelebrate. A reception with refreshments will follow the Mass at 7:15 p.m., and the displays and tours will be available then as well.
