Thank you to all the parishes across our diocese that participated in the Saint Joseph Chaplet project for the Year of Saint Joseph and Bishop Hanefeldt’s pastoral initiative to Strengthen Family Life. Twenty-one parishes across our diocese participated in the program. The Chancery team put together over 1,500 chaplet kits and sent them to the parishes for their religious education classes.
