Grief is a life experience we all share whether it is the loss of a job, retirement, moving and leaving behind a special place, the loss of love during a divorce, adult children moving away, illness, miscarriage, or the death of a loved one. There are many kinds of losses....

It takes courage to carry Christ publicly in a procession, professing faith in a God who is "really, truly, and substantially" present in a piece of bread. St. Francis had the fortitude to stand before the Sultan during the Crusades, not with an army, but with....

“Lord, make us an instrument of your peace.” These words of St. Francis of Assisi resonated across eight centuries, and on June 7, 2026, the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, our Collaborative, will gather to process with the Blessed Sacrament.

We do so in the prayerful context of....

We give thanks for...

As we shared with you at Masses last weekend, Archbishop Henning has asked me to remain as Pastor here a bit longer (several months or up to a year) until an....
