Chancery Updates

 

  • Please review information about the upcoming Necrology report below. A significant change has been made to the due date and dates included in the Necrology.
  • The diocesan Human Resources Office has recently implemented a hiring platform to help diocesan offices, parishes and schools better advertise their job openings and allow us to recruit more broadly. A nominal fee of $50.00 is being charged which places the opening on the Diocesan Job Board at such recruiting sites as “Keloland Employment,” “Indeed,” “Monster,” “Google,” and “Zip Recruiter.”

If you know of anyone seeking to work in an environment where their Catholic faith plays an integral role in their job, please direct them to the Diocesan Job Board at https://sfcatholic.hireclick.com/jobboard/

Diocesan entities interested in posting a job opening on the Diocesan Job Board should contact Renee Leach at (605)988-3752 or via email at rleach@sfcatholic.org for more information.

Necrology needed for 2021-2022

Each year in the November issue of the Bishop’s Bulletin, we feature a complete listing of those of our diocesan family who have died during the past year. We need your assistance in compiling that list.

Please check your records and list the names of all members of your parish(es)/community who have died on or after October 1, 2021, through those who have died on or before August 31, 2022, in a Word document or email.

Please note the deadline to be included has changed from September 30 to August 31. This is due to the deadline changes with our new printer which requires content to them approximately six weeks prior to mailing.

Please list (per parish/religious community)

  • Names of the dead, first then last name (no nicknames, only proper names, like Helen Jones, not Mrs. Johnny Jones, or Jones, Helen). Middle name/initial is not needed, and will not be included in the final report.
  • Date of his/her death in chronological order. Day of the week is not needed.
  • For example your report should look like this: Helen Jones- Oct. 24; Jim Smith- Nov. 18; Carol Nelson- Jan. 17

Please respond even if your parish/community has recorded no deaths in this time period. Simply state “no deaths.”

Please send your report in a Word document or type it directly into the email so it can be easily copied and formatted for the Bishop’s Bulletin, and indicate your parish(es)/community in the email subject line.

Begin sending your information after August 31, reports will not be accepted before August 31. The deadline to be included in the Necrology is September 12.

Brianna will respond to your email when she has received it. If you don’t hear from her, she did not get it.

Please email Brianna Wingen at bwingen@sfcatholic.org or mail to Bishop’s Bulletin Necrology, 523 N. Duluth Ave., Sioux Falls, SD 57104 with your completed Necrology report.

Thank you for your help with getting this report compiled. If you have any questions, call Brianna at 605-988-3789 or email at bwingen@sfcatholic.org.
