Teens enjoying the moment
Father Patrick was awarded the prestigious silver cross of St. Augustine
in church at the 10:30 service Rose Sunday. Diocese of Eau Claire Bishop
Ed Leidel presented Father Patrick with the award on behalf of
the Archbishop of Canterbury (Rowan) who bestowed the award in absentia.
Archbishop Rowan is retiring, and was unable to travel from London to La
Crosse to present the award personally. He asked Bishop Ed to present it
on his behalf with best wishes. The award was given to Father Patrick
for his evangelism and outreach, particularly seeking and
serving Christians who live in poverty and persecution in the far flung
corners of the world. This culminates an active life long career of
Father Patrick who consistently seeks and serves those in need locally
and globally.

A Message from the Senior Warden:
It is my honor and privilege to announce that Father Patrick has been
awarded the Doctor of Divinity honorary degree from Nashotah House. The
Nashotah Board of Trustees grants this degree to those whose life and
work demonstrate the ideals for which Nashotah House is known, and upon
which she was founded. In honoring Fr. Patrick, Nashotah House brings
honor upon herself for the faithful commitment and trust shown. This
Doctor of Divinity Degree will be awarded at the Commencement to be held
on Thursday, May 16, 2013 at Nashotah House.
