Bishop Michael Fisher was the beloved pastor of our parish from 1999 to 2005. “Fr. Mike” (as he was known to us then) left many enduring effects on our parish. One of the most profound parts of his legacy is the Adoration Chapel, which began under his pastoral leadership and has been a spiritual powerhouse for our parish ever since. It seems fitting, then, that we present him with a “spiritual bouquet” as a gift from our parish on the occasion of his installation as bishop of Buffalo, NY, on Jan. 15, 2021, so that he will know of our prayerful support as he takes on this great responsibility.
If you’d like to participate, here’s what to do:- Consider what offering you want to make for Bishop Fisher (for example, a particular number of rosaries, chaplets, hours of adoration, Our Fathers, or whatever prayer or devotion you want).
- Fill out a spiritual bouquet form on this page specifying your prayer offering and who it’s from, and a card will be added for you in the bundle we will send to Bishop Fisher to let him know of your prayers. Feel free to add an encouraging message for Bishop Fisher if you wish.
- Pray your offered prayers! Through the Lord’s great grace, they will certainly benefit the new bishop.
Cards will be accepted through Sunday, Jan. 17. Know a former parishioner from the “Fr. Mike” era who might like to participate? Invite them! Questions? Contact Mary Beth de Ribeaux, jpgvs.sjn@gmail.com
