Bishops Annual Appeal Message
Bishop Elect Earl K. Fernandes- BAA Message
BAA 2022 Prayer
Loving Father,We turn to You in this season of transition in the Diocese of Columbus. With hearts filled with gratitude, we rejoice in Your blessings and guidance over the years. With hearts filled with hope, we joyfully anticipate Your marvels for our future. Through the Great Commission, Jesus Christ, Your Son, has called us to cooperate in His plan of salvation through the work of evangelization, disciple formation, charity, and mercy through diverse charisms and vocations. Responding in generosity, may we all unite together as a local church in financial support of our common mission through this year’s Bishop’s Annual Appeal. We ask this in the Name of Christ Our Lord. Amen

4th Sunday of Easter/ Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day has been celebrated as a national holiday in the United States on the second Sunday of May since 1914. But Catholics have been celebrating a sort of mother’s day since the first few centuries of the Church. The fourth Sunday of Lent, or Laetare Sunday, traditionally was a time to return to your mother church (home parish) and leave an offering.
