Bishop Golka's Reflection on the Sunday of Divine Mercy

COLORADO SPRINGS. Bishop James Golka issued the following statement in response to the death of Pope Francis:

ST. LOUIS, Mo. The USA Central and Southern Province of the Society of Jesus announced that Jesuit Father Joe Laramie, who currently serves as national director of the Apostleship of Prayer, is assigned as director of Sacred Heart Jesuit Retreat House in Sedalia effective Aug. 1. 

He is risen!  After 40 days of prayer and fasting and accompanying the Lord in his passion and death on the cross, the Church rejoices in his glorious Resurrection.

COLORADO SPRINGS. April 20-26 is National Infertility Awareness Week. Couples carrying the cross of infertility are in our families, among our friends, and in our pews. They need to know that they have many gifts to bring to our parish, that their marriages are life-giving in many beautiful ways, and that God has not abandoned them — and neither have we. For more resources and support, visit www.diocs.org/Offices/The-Office-of-Marriage-and-Family-Life/Marriage-and-Family-Healing or email cos.infertility@gmail.com.

In these early months of the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope, the intertwined calls of Pope Francis and Bishop James Golka urge us to be “tangible signs of hope.” Within the Diocese of Colorado Springs, we are committed to showcasing how our community actively lives out the call to hope during this Jubilee Year.
