WELCOME
ZACH!!!
Greetings to
All-
My name is
Zach Holzer and I am very excited about my new
position as liturgy and music director of Blessed Trinity
Parish. This article will give you a bit of information
about me and where I’ve been since graduating from
Sheboygan Falls High School in 1998.
After high school, I attended Silver Lake College in
Manitowoc Wisconsin where I earned a bachelors degree in
Music Education and a minor in sacred music and Liturgy.
For the past nine years I have been the music director
for St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church in Newton.
Much like St. Rose, St. George and St. Mary’s, the church
in Newton was a merger of four country churches which
included St. Joseph of Alverno, St. Casimir of Northeim,
St. Wendel of Cleveland, and St. Isidore of Osman. All
four of these church buildings were closed and a new
Church was built in 2001.
After I graduated from college in 2003, I was hired as a
general and choral music teacher for the Cedar
Grove-Belgium School District. I taught in grades 5-12
and really enjoyed working with students and building
the music program. In 2007 I was offered a position with
the Howards Grove School District as Director of Choral
Activities from grades 7-12 and have been there ever
since. Currently, I am proud to say that we have over 150
singers in our middle and high school choirs. I work
with an extremely talented staff and am very proud of
all the students I teach!
My wife Becky and I were married in June 2007. Becky
is a 4th grade teacher at St. Mary’s in Port
Washington and also a certified Yoga instructor. We met
when we were at Silver Lake College! We currently reside
in Kohler with the company of our three cats.
I look forward to meeting all of you in the next few
months. As I help my former church transition, you may
see a substitute organist here and there in the month of
August. My next bulletin article will talk about the
different music ministries that you are going to want to
be involved in! Until next time, Keep Singing!

WELCOME
JEANNE!!!
SUMMER GREETINGS!
It is with joy that I
write to tell you that I have recently accepted
the position of principal of St. Mary School. I
am happy, excited and grateful to I know that I
will be working with dedicated teachers and
staff members and a fine pastor, as well as with
wonderful students and families here at St. Mary
School. I feel fortunate to be a part of a
school family where the Good News of Christ is
taught, modeled and lived and where there is a
commitment to high expectations, innovation and
collaboration.
For the past 4 years, I have been the principal
at St. John the Baptist Catholic School in
Plymouth. Prior to that I was a teacher,
principal, director of elementary education and
co-superintendent in the Sheboygan Area School
District. I have a Bachelor’s degree in
Elementary Education from Mount Mary College and
a Master’s degree from UW-Madison. I have also
earned a Certificate in Lay Ministry from St.
Francis Seminary and am currently enrolled in
the Ph.D. Program at Cardinal Stritch
University. I live in Kohler and am a member of
St. Dominic Parish where I have been a trustee,
chairperson of the Parish Council and volunteer
coordinator of the Religious Education program.
I am currently a Lector, Eucharistic Minister
and a member of various parish committees.
I love working with students and their families
as well as with teachers and school staff
members, and I look forward to the challenges
that will be faced, and the opportunities that
will come to share the message of Jesus and to
help students grow in faith, knowledge and love
at St. Mary School during the coming school
year. I’m looking forward to this “new year”, to
becoming part of the St. Mary School Staff, and
to working with each and all of you, the
parishioners of Blessed Trinity Parish. Please
stop in to visit if/when you are in the
neighborhood. My door is always open and I look
forward to meeting you.
May God continue to bless you and yours,
Jeanne M. Bitkers, Principal
