Bishop Rey recently traveled to Mexico City to meet with clergy from our diocese studying Spanish at the Seminario Hispano and to celebrate Mass at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

“‘Celebrating Mass at the Basilica was a profoundly moving moment—an unforgettable way to conclude what I hope is the first of many visits to come.’ — Bishop Rey

We give thanks for Our Lady’s intercession and pray that her loving care continues to guide Bishop Rey and all who serve the Church.

El Obispo Rey viajó recientemente a la Ciudad de México para reunirse con sacerdotes de nuestra diócesis que están estudiando español en el Seminario Hispano y para celebrar la Misa en la Basílica de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe.
"Celebrar la Misa en la Basílica fue un momento profundamente conmovedor—una manera inolvidable de concluir lo que espero sea la primera de muchas visitas por venir." — Obispo Rey
Damos gracias por la intercesión de Nuestra Señora y pedimos que su amorosa protección siga guiando al Obispo Rey y a todos los que sirven a la Iglesia.
