Archbishop Murphy celebrated a Mass to dedicate St. Joseph’s Church in Vancouver, WA. He describes in his homily what a unique opportunity it is for a parish to build a new church – a moment of grace. The archbishop characterizes the new church as being far more than a structure of glass, steel and wood – it is symbol of a people of faith in whom God dwells. “The dedication of this church is a call for all of us to dedicate ourselves to God as well, to translate the text of God’s Word into our individual lives,” said Archbishop Murphy.
