After a season of restoration and renewal, the parish community of St. Bernadette Parish Archdiocese of Omaha joyfully welcomed parishioners, families, friends, and guests back for the Grand Reopening of St. Bernadette Church on Sunday morning.

This special weekend marks more than the reopening of a building, it is a celebration of faith, community, and a renewed sacred space where generations will continue to gather in worship, prayer, fellowship, and service.

With grateful hearts, we thank Archbishop Michael G. McGovern for celebrating our Grand Reopening Mass, dedicating the new altar, and leading the Rite of Entombing the Relic.

We also extend our sincere appreciation to Carlson West Povondra Architects, Lueder Construction, our parish leadership, staff, volunteers, donors, and the many parishioners whose generosity, hard work, and prayers made this renovation project possible.

This beautiful renewal of St. Bernadette Church is a testament to the faith, dedication, and generosity of our parish family. Thank you to everyone who helped bring this vision to life.

We are also pleased to share that plans are underway to provide an encore presentation of this special celebration to our parish family.

Stay tuned for additional details on how and when you can watch the recorded Mass. We look forward to sharing this memorable celebration with all who were unable to attend in person.

Below are the first photos of the beautifully renovated St. Bernadette Church. These updates reflect our commitment to creating a welcoming, prayerful, and inspiring place where our parish family can gather to worship, celebrate the sacraments, and grow in faith for generations to come.
