Called to Greater Faith
God is calling us to greater faith, Bishop Joensen said. God remains with us always, but do we always remain with him? In this time leading up to a Eucharistic renewal, Bishop Joensen encourages us to return to Jesus in the Eucharist with joy, where our hearts are purified in his presence.
Year of St. Joseph
The Year of St. Joseph has begun! And Bishop Joensen is reflecting on this humble saint who displayed a great trust in God, allowing him to be used for a higher purpose. Bishop explains the virtues of creative courage and chastity of St. Joseph, and encourages us to better know Jesus' father figure during this time. He also asks for prayers for our two seminarians, Max Carson and Nick Stark, who will be respectively ordained to the transitional diaconate Dec. 26 in Rome and Dec. 30 in Urbandale.
