On Tuesday, May 21st, the diocese honored priests observing their 60th, 50th, 40th and 25th anniversaries of ordination with Mass and luncheon at St. Basil the Great Parish in Brecksville. Fr. Mike is celebrating his 50th anniversary and the staff was there to support and celebrate with him. The Mass was beautiful and we were thrilled to have all four Bishops in attendance: Bishop Edward Malesic, Auxiliary Bishop Michael Woost, retired Bishop Roger Gries, OSB and Bishop Emeritus (Diocese of Davenport, Iowa) Martin Amos. Bishop Amos grew up in the Cleveland area and was an auxiliary Bishop in Cleveland before his appoint to Davenport.
