Come and enjoy our choirs’ music on Father’s Day, 11:00 am Mass on June 18.

Over the past few weeks, I have received a few questions about the transition that is taking place with the Bishop of the Diocese of Kalamazoo. This is something that doesn’t happen too often in a diocese. As we prepare to welcome Bishop Elect Lohse in July, he will be the fifth Bishop that I have served under as a priest (Bishop Donovan, our first bishop, ordained me). I would like to explain the process a bit.

Many have asked me who will be arriving at St. Catherine to assist me in the upcoming months. Starting July 5, Fr. Antony Rajesh is coming to assist me at St. Catherine’s for several months.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."  Jeremiah 29:11

Every time we fill the recycling bins, PAPER GATOR pays the parish. This is such an easy way for you to recycle your papers, for the parish to earn money and for all of us to save the environment and reduce waste in landfills.

Msgr. Edward Lohse will be ordained Bishop at 2:00 pm on July 25, 2023. This ordination will take place at St. Augustine Cathedral. 

Do we willingly take up our crosses to build His Kingdom here on earth? Do we see God in even the most difficult to love? It is not an easy task in this busy and secular world. But it helps to always remember those words: “God so loved the world…”

Next weekend, our St. Catherine priests will be celebrating our priesthood anniversaries. We will gather to celebrate as a group at the 11 am Mass, and then proceed to Marian Hall for a reception. This will also be our chance to say farewell to Fr. Ben, his final weekend at the parish will be on June 18.
