We insure our homes and our vehicles, but we don’t always think about protecting our ability to earn a living. Having a plan in place if something unexpected happens can make a big difference for your family. If you want to understand how income protection works, reach out to me today.

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers out there! Vivat Jesus!

Happy Father’s Day!

Today we give thanks for fathers, grandfathers, priests, mentors, and all the men who reflect God’s fatherly love through their generosity, guidance, and sacrifice.

In a world that needs strong families and faithful leadership, we are grateful for the men who answer the call to protect, provide, and serve.

May St. Joseph inspire all fathers to lead with courage, humility, and unwavering faith.

Thank you, all fathers, for the difference you make every day.

Today, we remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation.

As Catholics, we entrust these fallen heroes to the mercy of God and pray for their eternal rest. May their sacrifice never be forgotten, and may we strive to build a society worthy of the freedoms they helped secure.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen.

Please join us in praying for all who have died in service, for their families, and for peace in our world.

Taco Dinner in St Charles to benefit seminarians

04/25/2026

👉 Give today: https://www.givecentral.org/dowrsemed

The call to the priesthood is a gift to the entire Church and your support helps make that call possible.

Each year, men in our diocese step forward to discern God’s will, preparing through years of formation, prayer, and study. This journey is deeply transformative, shaping future priests who will one day celebrate the sacraments, proclaim the Gospel, and walk with the faithful across southern Minnesota.

But formation comes with significant cost, about $45,000 per seminarian per year. For many who feel called, financial limitations can become a real obstacle.

Your generosity to the Seminarian Education Fund removes that barrier.

Through your gift, you are not just funding education, you are helping form shepherds for the Church, strengthening the future of the Diocese of Winona–Rochester, and answering Christ’s call to “pray to the Lord of the harvest.”

Thank you for your prayerful support in building a strong culture of vocations.
