Bishop Golka's Reflection on Holy Trinity Sunday

Es preferible, hermanos, que busquen entre ustedes a siete hombres de buena fama, llenos del Espíritu Santo y de sabiduría, y nosotros les encargaremos esta tarea . . .” (Hechos 6, 3)

El 25 de mayo, nuestra diócesis será bendecida con la ordenación de 12 hombres al diaconado permanente.  Estos hombres se unirán a 100 hermanos diáconos que sirven en nuestra diócesis, todos ellos configurados en la forma de Cristo Siervo.  De hecho, la palabra diácono viene de una palabra griega diakonos, que significa “siervo”.  La Iglesia pide a los diáconos que ejerzan su ministerio de servicio principalmente en tres partes:  palabra, altar y caridad.

"B​​​​​​rothers, select from among you seven reputable men, filled with the Spirit and wisdom, whom we shall appoint to this task . . .” (Acts 6:3)

On May 25, our diocese will be blessed by the ordination of 12 men to the permanent diaconate. These men will join 100 brother deacons serving in our diocese, all of whom are configured in the form of Christ the Servant.  In fact, the word “deacon” comes from a Greek word, “diakonos,” which means “servant.” The Church asks deacons to exercise their ministry of service primarily in three parts:  word, altar and charity.

Bishop Golka's Reflection on the Ascension of the Lord

"But Peter and the apostles said in reply, ‘We must obey God rather than men.’” (Act 5:29).

"Pedro, junto con los Apóstoles, respondió: ‘Hay que obedecer a Dios antes que a los hombres’” (Hechos 5, 29).

Hoy hay en el mundo más de 400.000 hombres que respondieron a la llamada al sacerdocio.  Son 400.000 hombres únicos e irrepetibles.  No hay dos iguales, no hay dos con los mismos talentos, no hay dos que sigan el mismo camino hacia la ordenación.

Bishop Golka's Reflection on the Fifth Sunday of Easter

I do believe, help my unbelief!” (Mark 9:24).

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

In the March 15 issue of the Herald, “The Bishop’s Crozier” asked a question that has been asked for 2,000 years — a question that Jesus himself asked: “Do you believe this?”
