"Today we celebrate the feast of St. Francis de Sales, principal patron of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. As a bishop and renowned confessor and spiritual guide, St. Francis de Sales led people to follow the Lord more devoutly, and his writings have inspired countless thousands over the past 400 years to walk the path of holiness. It is good for us to consider how we also can lead people to Christ in our time and place, particularly through the parishes of the archdiocese.", says Archbishop Dennis M. Schnurr.
