Msgr. James Bartylla, Vicar General, announces the following priest appointments made by Most Reverend Robert C. Morlino, Bishop of Madison, effective Monday, May 2, 2016, and announced at weekend Masses of Saturday and Sunday, February 20 and 21, 2016:
It’s February, and you know what that means. The Super Bowl has been played, the Lenten Season has arrived, and many of us have forsaken our New Year’s resolutions. So called experts say that one third of us will have abandoned our 2016 goals by this point.
I’m a planner, so I usually have a few goals and resolutions for the year. There is one resolution that I will try to keep — to be more grateful. It’s a fairly simple idea, but one that is easy to put aside.
This story could be all about water slides, but it isn’t.
Ask any teen who attends Frassati Fest every year. They will tell you one of the most memorable parts of the weekend is the water park, but there’s more — so much more.
The fourth in a series by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf about the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.
We are looking into what bishops do when they celebrate the Pontifical Mass in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.
Since you may see reports that Bishop Robert C. Morlino of Madison occasionally offers these Masses, you may be wondering what that’s all about, what he’s up to.
Last week we closed with a look at how the fine elements of reverent liturgy, the beautiful vestments and so forth, are not really about the glorification of the priest or bishop. They are about the perfect spotless only Holy One, Christ the High Priest/Victim at the altar of Sacrifice.
“I just loved him,” said Irene Sullivan of Fr. Loren “Larry” Bowens, who died December 30 while still serving as priest co-moderator of the Madison Diocesan Council of Catholic Women (MDCCW).
Sullivan, Lake Mills, was president of the MDCCW Board from 1977 to 1978 when she was a member of St. Pius X Parish, Cambridge.

I’m sure by now you’ve heard about the absurd reaction of the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) to the lighthearted Super Bowl commercial produced to advertise Doritos.
In the 30-second clip, a pregnant mother, undergoing an ultra-sound, is annoyed by her husband who is absent-mindedly munching Doritos while their baby’s image is displayed on the screen.
But as the father moves the corn chip, the baby in the womb moves with it; and when the mother throws the bag across the room, the child reacts so keenly and purposively that he decides this is the moment to be born.
