Greetings in Christ, all! This weekend is the big MSU game against their rival in Ann Arbor. By the time you read this, I pray MSU has secured victory. This Monday is All Saints’ Day. This is when we celebrate and we honor the canonized saints in our Church. Normally, this is a Holy Day of Obligation […]
Greetings in Christ! I’m writing this article way ahead of time, but when I finished last week’s article, I figured, why not keep going? Much like I do in my homilies sometimes…haha. So, last week I shared with you about where we are going with the Church building itself. Some of this is happening because at the Priest […]
Greetings in Christ all! I wanted to start right off and thank God for our prayer ministry here at Holy Family. The feedback from the healing service continues to come in and a lot of people experienced the Lord and His Holy Spirit that night. The people who are praying with folks have been preparing for so long […]
Greetings in Christ! Welcome to October…I love this month. I wanted to give you a little more information on the priest convocation from the diocese.

Greetings from Green Bay, Wisconsin! I am here conducting the Priest Convocation for the diocese of Marquette. This is a really amazing group of men who carry a LOT of parishes and do a lot of driving for the Kingdom of God. I’m so blessed to meet them. Among the 50 or so priests here, I have […]
Greetings in Christ! I think it may be official that fall weather is here and if so, count this fat man as happy! Fall is my favorite time of year; even though it’s the end of baseball, it’s such a wonderful season. During Sunday Masses, one of our options for the Preface is about the changing […]
Greetings in Christ! We are right in the midst of what I affectionately call “Wedding Season” at Holy Family and St. Mark. This joyous time is when many of our people enter into an eternal covenant together. It’s a good time for us to take a look at our own marriages or our longing to be married […]
Hello, People of God! This week we begin our newest school year. I cannot tell you what a rare and valuable blessing it is to be able to offer our kids a place where they can learn about Jesus and the world He created. We celebrate that God has brought 43 new families into our school… […]

We are so very blessed to be a part of this community formed 75 years ago in faith. Your prayerful support of this occasion and joy- filled time […]
