On Thursday, August 30 we inaugurated our anniversary year celebrating 150 years of service in the United States. Our new auxiliary bishop, Most Rev. Michael Fisher joined us for Mass and then in the afternoon we had a great anniversary party with our residents and staff.
We even enjoyed refreshments made from an old French Chef recipe!
Two journalists from The Catholic Standard joined us for the party and wrote a lovely article. Read it here. (the following photos are courtesy of The Catholic Standard).
