St. Anthony's Catholic Church is the Logan County Chamber of Commerce Business of the Week. Receiving the honor are Tom Sewald - Maintenance, Very Reverend Michael Bodzioch, Carole Quint -Faith Formation, Dorcas Brekel - Business Manager, Reverend Herman Nsubuga, Juli Schneider -Secretary and (not pictured) Deacon Ron Michieli and Dorea Sewald.
....The original Catholic church in Sterling was named St. John the Baptist. The deed was dated Oct. 1, 1888, and the church was located on Walnut Street. Unfortunately the church was destroyed by a high wind, or twister, in 1896.
....The present day Saint Anthony of Padua Catholic Church became an Independent parish in September of 1908 and the Rev. P.U. Sasse was appointed as pastor by Rev. Nicholas Matz, Bishop of Denver. The Cornerstone was placed on, April 2, 1911. Saint Anthony's remains part of the Archdiocese of Denver.
....The Catholic church in Sterling became an important center in this area! Many Irish Catholics who had followed the railroads as they were being developed, followed by, Italians who were farmer/ranchers, and as irrigation developed, it brought many German-Russian families to farm and raise sugar beets. Many of these new immigrants were devout Catholics with large families. Therefore, there was strong support for a resident priest for their Church.
....A two-story, 10 room rectory was built and finished in 1914. A parochial school was opened the second Monday of September in 1918 and was closed in May of 2015.
Parishoners at Saint Anthony follow the teachings of the Catholic Church, but they are also, “Partners In Christ!” They strive to live the Gospels, be a beacon to those in need, help those who have fallen, give a hand to those who are hurting, and let the light of Jesus shine through. They believe, that every saint had a past, and every sinner has a future.
....They are shepherded by the Very Rev. Michael Bodzloch, Parochial Vicar Herman Nsubaga and, Deacon Ron Michieli. You are welcome to stop by at 326 South 3rd Street, call 970-522-6422 or visit their website www.saintanthonyssterling.org.

Resources For Small Businesses
Federal Stimulus
The new federal stimulus provides additional support for small businesses impacted by the pandemic, especially restaurants and entertainment venues. This round of “Paycheck Protection Program” (PPP), can go to any businesses that show a loss in revenue of 25% or more from at least one quarter of 2020 as compared to that same quarter in 2019. The funding available for businesses is calculated by finding the average monthly payroll in 2019 and then multiplying it by 2.5, meaning 2.5 months of payroll expenses. The new law provides even more help for restaurants through a special provision that gives these businesses a PPP amount equal to 3.5 months of average monthly payroll costs. We anticipate that Colorado businesses can gain access to billions of dollars in funding via these programs. The timing for the availability of this round of PPP loans has not been announced by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Please visit the OEDIT website listed above for updates as information becomes available and more details on this round of PPP loans and other federal stimulus program. The new law also creates a simplified one-page forgiveness application for PPP loans of under $150,000 and allows expenses covered by PPP loans to be tax deductible. A $600 stimulus is part of Congress’ most recent bipartisan stimulus package and have already begun hitting bank accounts. Individuals with an adjusted gross income of up to $75,000 a year on their 2019 tax return will qualify for the $600 and couples earning up to $150,000 will qualify for $1,200 total. The credit phases out for individuals earning above $75,000 but below $100,000. There is also a $600 payment for each qualifying child. .................................. Payment
Unemployment Insurance
Housing and Utilities Assistance
During this year’s special session, we collaborated with bipartisan legislators in the General Assembly to allocate an additional $54 million in housing assistance through the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA). For more information on DOLA’s housing programs and to access support for your rent or mortgage, visit their website. We also allocated $5 million to Energy Outreach Colorado to help Coloradans with utility assistance. Visit their website for more information on how to access those funds. You can also find more information on other programs serving our state, such as County Housing Authorities, the Colorado Low Income Energy Assistance, and more.
Food Assistance
During this pandemic, 1 in 3 Coloradans aren’t sure where their next meal is coming from. I’m proud that during the special session earlier this year we awarded $5 million to the Food Pantry Assistance Program in the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS). If you’re experiencing food insecurity, learn more about food assistance programs from the CDHS, Food Bank of the Rockies, and others serving the people of Colorado. Organizations looking to help their communities address hunger and food access issues, can apply for assistance with the Emergency Hunger Relief Fund
