Priests in the Diocese of Calgary celebrated the jubilee of their seven brother priests last Tuesday, Sep. 16, 2023, at St. Anthony's Church. Bishop McGrattan led the Eucharistic Celebration, concelebrated by the jubilarian priests.
In line with the spirit of the Synod, Fr. Fabio DeSouza also presented his insightful work, "From Pioneers to Parishioners: Tracing the Pastoral History of the Diocese of Calgary from 1912-1994", prior to the Mass. He emphasized the role of history in inspiring all people of God - pastors and parishioners alike - in continuing the Church's mission across the Diocese.
The celebration wrapped up with a communal meal at the Parish Hall, complete with a birthday cake for Bishop McGrattan!
