The Diocese of Winona closed the year of faith with a series of deanery based celebrations. The area parishes gathered in a single place for prayer, reflection and a message from our Bishop. I was in Owatonna and it was a great celebration with around 350 people in attendance. Our young people were on for greeting and helping serve the dinner. They did a great job.
In his video, Bishop Quinn highlighted that in September, 2014 we will celebrate the 125th anniversary of the founding of our diocese in 1889. He spoke of the coming year as a year of thanksgiving - for faith and for the local communities that have nurtured the faith in the past and will continue to do so into the future.
