In my last Missionary Messenger I asked for volunteers to organize Bishop’s Prayer Wheels…finding seven people willing to pray for the Bishop of a diocese one day each week. (See ‘Praying for our Bishop’s’ article below) This is a list of the dioceses in the United States, and along with the Pope. On this list I […]
A Missionary Messenger (the Missionaries of the Liturgy newsletter) is going out this week and included in the mailing are special rosary intentions to be offered for your bishop or for all bishops. I will include below an article from the Missionary Messenger. In another post on this website you will see the list of […]
Recently in the Missionary of the Liturgy Benefactor’s Newsletter I enclosed a Novena of Grace card. This is the information about the novena that I sent out last year in late February. The Novena is traditionally prayed from March 4-12…. Each year in many parishes (especially Jesuit parishes), between March 4th and March 12th, special […]
Today we remember the day on which Bishop Baraga died, January 19th, 1868. This year is the 150th year since Bishop Baraga entered eternity. The Bishop Baraga Association in Marquette is planning a special celebration which you can read about on the website for the Diocese of Marquette. Servant Maria sends out a mailing each year […]

In May this prayer was first included in the mailing for the Missionaries of the Liturgy along with a prayer plan encouraging people to find other to pray the prayer for our country each day. Those who wish to do even more can pick one day of the week on which to offer extra prayers […]

Late in June two generous visitors to the Shrine made a special stop to help work on the grounds. Judy Koenn from Chelsea, Michigan spent a week at the end of June helping Servant Maria inside and out, especially helping to make the grounds look much nicer. Noreen Schreiber biked up from Mosinee, Wisconsin (200 miles!) […]
The sad day came for our ice cream lovers….the day on which they knew they wouldn’t be back to the Bishop Baraga Shrine to have ice cream for another year. So the four loyal ice cream eaters pulled themselves away from their summer activities in Skanee and traveled twenty miles for another dose of delicious […]
Wausaukee Ice Cream Lovers…Last year some innocent gift shop visitors from Wausaukee, Wisconsin tasted some of our homemade ice cream. That was it…there were ice cream eaters from Wausaukee back at the Bishop Baraga Shrine every weekend of August last year. And this year as soon as they hit L’Anse they hit the Bishop Baraga Shrine and […]
