Pastor’s Corner

1. Diocesan March for Life: On January 23 at 10am in St. Michael’s Cathedral, there will be a Respect Life Mass offered in the Cathedral. Immediately after the Mass, there will be a peaceful march through the streets of Springfield, where students from our Catholic High Schools will lead prayerful petitions on the steps of Springfield City Hall.
2. Bible Study: Starting this Tuesday January 24 for the next twelve weeks, there will be a Bible Study from 6:30pm- 7:30pm in the parish center. It is a digital Bible study run by FOCUS, featuring Dr. Ed Sri and Curtis Martin and they will go through Salvation History. It is pretty neat, don’t miss it! It is also important to note that Dr. Sri will be a Keynote Speaker at our Diocesan Eucharistic Congress, held on March 4. He has a lot of insight, worked closely with people of all ages and is a solid family man with nine children.
3. Eucharistic Panel Discussion: On February 15, there will be a Eucharistic Panel held by members of the Year of the Eucharist Committee. The members of our panel will feature Fr. Barrent Pease and Fr. Ryan Sliwa who were both seminarians in this parish. Come watch how they grew up and speak and answer questions about the Eucharist. We will start the evening with an inspiring witness from Deacon Michael Forrest about a miracle he had through the Eucharist, followed by discussion and thirty minutes of adoration. Other panelist are Luke Holwedell from St. Mary’s and Dr. Margaret Hughes, a professor of Philosophy from Thomas Aquinas College. We are all excited to host this event!
4. Eucharistic Congress: Please do not forget to register for the Eucharistic Congress. The Eucharistic Congress will be an historical event in our Church. Throughout the centuries, Eucharistic Congresses were held in order to help boost the faith of the people. More information is on our website https://catholiclifeconference.org/.
