Welcome the Year of Mercy

On Saturday, December 13, Bishop Lennon welcomed the 2016 Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy with a replication of the opening of the Holy Doors of Mercy at the 10:30 mass at the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist. Pope Francis opened the Holy Doors of Mercy in Rome on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception.  St. Colette parishioners, Donna and Jennifer Sens, were able to join Bishop Lennon along with many other Catholics from all over the diocese for this special day.  The last time the Bishop celebrated the Rite of the Holy doors was over a decade ago in 2000.

Weekend of  12/12 & 12/13
