Celebration of Priesthood:

The best way to praise God is to thank Him for His goodness and for all His gifts to us.  Thanksgiving is the best prayer and a surety for more blessings.

Join me in celebrating Priesthood, the seed and fruit of Mother Church.  I would like to begin with our Dear Most Rev. Bishop Terry Steib, as He just celebrated His 29th Episcopal Ordination Anniversary this year. Let us celebrate and thank Bishop Terry Steib for His Excellence Service to the mother Church and her Children. Let us thank  God and Bishops' Parents for the great gift of Bishop Terry Steib. Let us thank Most. Rev. Bishop for his response to Jesus call to serve in His vineyard. We celebrate Bishop's dedicated life and his stewardship in serving Mother Church and her children with his eternal sacrifice in renouncing the world to embrace Mother Church. He is a great peoples' Bishop, who portrays deep faith and spirituality in teaching and administration of sacraments. Great leader who portrays productive people skills and  translates inner joy in his service. Great communicator, orator, and writer of faith, who portrays charisma of  Christ to his children. Architect of Diocese of Memphis spirituality, not just by position, but by realizing his divine call. Bishop is a Praying Bishop, who places and highlights prayer in a high esteem: Fervent teacher and a defender of faith and Holy Family  who has heart for faith and charity. He motivates and encourages lay families to walk in the passion of catholic faith. He transforms and transcends when he celebrates Eucharist as a kind shepherd in his ceremonial celebrations and in teaching. He reflects tradition and magisterial in his appearance, speech  actions, presentations, and writings. He  cares about his children faith. He is a father of many Faithful organizations in Memphis Diocese.  People love him, as he portrays himself as a well attentive people Bishop. I call him as PEOPLE BISHOP, as he is gifted with excellent evangelizing charisma that demands respect , veneration, and love from the people. He poses child like heart as he sees goodness in everything. He exhibits joyfulness when he is among his children  which is very genuine. He is a precious gift to us from Mother Church. Let us celebrate and thank him for his ministry and service.
