    DIOCESE OF OWENSBORO 2016 Annual Report The groundbreaking for St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Todd County, Kentucky, on December 8, 2016. Diocese of Owensboro A Message from the Bishop Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ, Hebrews 13:16 tells us to “not neglect to do good and to share what you have; God is pleased by sacrifices of that kind.” As you flip through the pages of our annual report, I ask you to pay close attention to the ways in which generosity of the people of the Diocese of Owensboro has allowed us to serve the world around us, perhaps even “unknowingly entertained angels” (Hebrews 13:2). Due to your generosity, our priests are able to provide the sacraments. Your children potentially have access to Catholic school and parish religious education programs. Young men discerning the priesthood are now able to attend seminary. Our sisters and brothers living on the margins are able to receive physical, spiritual and emotional support through our diocese’s resources. You will notice this year we have added a list of donors who gave to our local Church via our Disciples Response Fund or other charitable opportunities for the 2015-2016 fiscal year. We list these as a way to thank and honor these donors for their special contributions. You are an integral part of the past, present and future of the Church of western Kentucky. Thank you for answering the call to assist in the evangelization efforts of our Church. Yours in Christ, Most Reverend William F. Medley Diocese of Owensboro 2016 Annual Report 3 Diocese of Owensboro 2016 Donor Report Note: Time and attention was given to provide an accurate account of all donors during our fiscal year, July 1, 2015 - June 30, 2016.

Stika. More than a thousand people will be in attendance for this historic celebration and Rite of Dedication, including leaders of the Catholic Church representing the Vatican, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, and more than a dozen archdioceses, dioceses, and Catholic communities as well as faithful from the Diocese of Knoxville’s 51 parishes and Catholic missions. The Mass marks the official opening of the Diocese of Knoxville’s first dedicated cathedral, located at 711 S. Northshore Drive in Knoxville. It will replace the current Sacred Heart Cathedral, built in 1955 and opened in 1956. Sacred Heart served as a parish church from Jan. 1, 1956, until Pope St. John Paul II established the Diocese of Knoxville in 1988 and then elevated Sacred Heart to a cathedral. The old cathedral building will be converted into a parish fellowship hall. Joining Bishop Stika for the Dedication Mass will be Cardinal Justin Rigali, Cardinal Stanisław Dziwisz, Cardinal Daniel DiNardo, Cardinal William Levada, and Cardinal Timothy Dolan. Among the archbishops and bishops attending will be Archbishop Christophe Pierre, Archbishop Joseph E.

Congratulations also to our fully initiated members Evie Elder, Heather Elliott, Bryce Rickman, Teka Williams and Kliff Wilson who were fully initiated by making a Profession of Faith in the Catholic Church and celebrating the Sacraments of Eucharist and Confirmation. We rejoice with you and as a parish community pledge to help you grow and mature in the Christian life and embrace the Catholic way of life. What is next for those who entered the Catholic Church this Easter? Our eight newly initiated members have reached the final period of the initiation process. All who were baptized and received into full communion are called neophytes in this period, until the anniversary of their initiation next Easter. The final period of weekly formation extends through the Easter season to Pentecost. This post-baptismal catechesis is called MYSTAGOGY. It is a time for deepening the Christian experience in appreciation for the sacramental life, for spiritual growth and for entering into the life and unity of the Catholic Community including the responsibilities to witness and to bring the light of the Gospel to every corner of our world.
