Fr. Al 70th Anniversary Gift

Fr. Al Ruschman will celebrate his 70th Anniversary of Ordination to the Priesthood this year!

Fr. Al was ordained on May 30, 1953 for service to the Diocese of Covington. We will celebrate as a parish family, along with those in the diocese on Sunday,  June 4 at the 10:30 AM Mass with a festive lunch afterwards in the Cafeteria.  Save the date!  Plan to attend as we give thanks to God for the gift of the Priesthood and the gift of Fr. Al!

Gifts? Fr. Al has asked for no gifts directly.  Fr. Ross has suggested, and Fr. Ruschman loves the idea of a Statue of Saint Thomas given in honor of his 70th Anniversary for our Church.  The 5 foot statue will be carved wood to match the style of our restored Sacred Heart Statue.  It will sit next to the Saint Joseph Altar. The statue will be carved in Germany and will cost around $20,000.
