God is calling – and the diocese of Columbus is answering. In 2023, The Catholic Foundation launched the Forming Spiritual Entrepreneurs Campaign to strengthen evangelization and vocations in the Diocese of Columbus. Rooted in hope and driven by generosity from our donors, this campaign reflected Bishop Fernandes’ vision of a vibrant and faith-filled future for our Catholic community. This weekend, our Catholic community was blessed to welcome three newly ordained priests—an inspiring testament to the call of vocations. Congratulations to Reverend Kevin Girardi, Reverend Joseph Rowling, and Reverend Sam Severance on answering God’s call. May their life of service bring others closer to Christ. Additionally, Bishop Fernandes appeared on CBS Evening News with Elaine Quijano to highlight the importance of vocations in the Church, celebrate the ordination of new priests, and discuss the Religious Workforce Protection Act—a proposed law aimed at helping religious organizations continue their mission of bringing sacraments and service to communities across the country. https://cbsn.ws/4kA3E0p (fb)
