  • Most Reverend Paul Peter Rhode (1915-1945)
    Most Reverend Paul Peter Rhode (1915-1945) Perhaps the letter sent to Bishop Stanislaus Bona on March 5, 1945 by John Goodland, Jr., Mayor of Appleton, two days after the death of Bishop Paul Rhode, captured the deep love and respect so many people had for the sixth Bishop of Green Bay after serving so faithfully in the diocese for nearly 30 years: We realize to the fullest extent the benefits which your Diocese and the entire community have derived from the work of this Christian-minded and public- spirited man. The warm and personal feelings for inspiration which he gave to many hearts by his kindly and unselfish life will be a solace to many in years to come. Likewise, on the joyous occasion of Bishop Rhode’s Silver Jubilee of coming to the Diocese of Green Bay, Monsignor Joseph Marx, Vicar General and toastmaster for the event, shared: ….We, the diocese of Green Bay, are like a bee hive. When Bishop Rhode came to us at the behest of the Supreme Pontiff, Pope Benedict XV, there was also among us a joyous acclaim. For when a bishop is with us, we have life, we have union with the Church. In this memorable talk, he compared the coming of the Bishop Jubilarian to the Diocese of Green Bay as “a renewal of the spiritual nuptial vows pronounced first on March 3, 1868.” The personal episcopal shield of Bishop Rhode featured the motto “Vias tuas, Domine, edoce me” (Your ways, O Lord, teach me thoroughly). It guided him to do what was needed for the diocese.

All Catholics must guard against it in their hearts and work to dismantle the systems that perpetuate it. Priests throughout the Jefferson City diocese preached variations of that mes- sage the weekend of June 6-7, as part of their homilies for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. “Any time we look at any person or group of people to be less than us because of the color of their skin, we are doing nothing more than following the Father of Lies and falling into the evil of racism,” Father Philip Niekamp, pastor of St. Pius X parish in Moberly, proclaimed from the pulpit.

  • Bishop Zielinski's Visit to Unalakleet
    Volume 59 Number 5 Fall 2021 Some give by going to the Missions Some go by giving to the Missions Without both there are no Missions Bishop Zielinski’s Visit to Unalakleet Editor’s Note: In Part II of Bishop Zielinski’s Easter trip to the villages, he visits the village of Unalakleet. After a prolonged absence from our diocese’s indigenous Catholics, Bishop Chad Zielinski finally was blessed to visit several parishes along the Yukon River this past spring. For these faith communities, it was their first time celebrating the Mass and sacraments for more than a year. Friday, March 19 Today was the Solemnity of St. Joseph, and I reflected what a perfect companion this saint was for my own journey to the villages of Alaska, having embarked on his holy journey with Jesus and Mary at the request of an angel. After a nearly two-hour flight from Anchorage, I arrived late afternoon in Unalakleet, a small village of about 700 people located in western Alaska. The name of the village is an adaptation of the Inupiaq word “Una-la-thliq,” which means “from the southern side.” Unalakleet has long been a major trade center between the interior Athabaskan and Bishop Chad Zielinski at Holy Angels Catholic Church in Unalakleet, Alaska.
