Fr. Patrick Hyde, O.P. grew up in St. Louis and attended Catholic grade school and high school. He attended the University of Richmond where he studied journalism and Latin. After college, he taught middle school English and theology for one year on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona at St. Michael Indian School, a school founded by St. Katharine Drexel. While teaching, Fr. Patrick sensed God was calling him to religious life and a move back to the Midwest. He was attracted to the Dominican emphasis on study and their common life and prayer. He entered the Dominican novitiate in 2009, professed first vows in 2010, and was ordained a priest on May 14, 2016. He has served at St. Paul's in Bloomington, where he is director of Campus Ministry, since 2016.

This Lent, the Archdiocese of Indianapolis will join together to reflect on the Scriptural Stations of the Cross that were celebrated by St. John Paul II. Through 14 Podcasts, the listener will have an opportunity to practice the three pillars of Lent – Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving. Each reflection will be led by priests from the Archdiocese. The Walking with Christ Podcasts will air in English, Spanish, as well as in American Sign Language on YouTube. New “Walking With Christ” podcasts will be uploaded every Tuesday and Thursday of Lent, and can be found by clicking here. Additional Lenten resources, as well as recordings of the podcasts, can be found at www.archindy.org/Lent2021.

Starting March 11, pray the Novena to Saint Joseph in the tradition of Saint Junipero. You can find it in online here. |

Saint Junipero Serra's devotion to St. Joseph
(Saint) Junipero Serra prayed the Novena to St. Joseph and relied on his intercessions all throughout his ministry. It started during the time when he was in San Diego when supplies were running out. After praying a nine-day Novena to St. Joseph ending on 19 March, a ship came with the supplies they needed. From then on, all throughout his life, (Saint) Junipero prayed a novena on the 19th of each month to St. Joseph till the month he died.
Therefore as Serrans, following in the footsteps of our Patron, we are called to pray the Novena to St. Joseph in March every year, ending on his feast day which is 19 March.
Saint Junipero must have known that just as Saint Joseph cared for and met all the earthly needs of Jesus Christ, the divine Son of God, he must also look after God's human children.
St. Joseph was the original "essential worker"!

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action)
Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining!"
