In this issue, Catholic Rural Life (CRL) takes a journey through the past 100 years of our organization since its founding in 1923 by Fr. Edwin V. O’Hara. Delve into the decades that have shaped CRL, exploring the moments that define our commitment to faith, love, and service. Our magazine features a compelling article by Fr. Jim Schmitmeyer, sharing profound insights on Thriving in Rural Ministry. His reflections offer a deep understanding and a sense of wonder about the unique challenges and joys of rural ministry. As we celebrate this monumental milestone, don’t miss the event details for our 100th Anniversary gathering on May 8th, 2024, in St. Paul, Minnesota. Join us as we honor a century of impactful service and set the stage for the inspiring chapters yet to unfold.
