In 2004 a young priest, Fr. Evelio Menjivar-Ayala, began his priestly ministry at the Germantown parish of Mother Seton. His warm spirit and gentle nature made him a beloved member of the parish community. Today after many journeys he has been appointed the tenth bishop of Wheeling-Charleston.
Mother Seton Parish is grateful for Bishop Evelio’s service to us and would like to present him with a Spiritual Bouquet of prayers and devotions offered for him by the parishioners.

Through powerful stories, deep theological insight, and Meg’s signature humor and authenticity, you’ll discover that sanctity isn’t distant or outdated — it’s fiercely relevant.
