For thirty years, Kathy has lived her vocation as a consecrated virgin in the world, faithfully responding to the Lord's call with generosity, love, and service.

Consecrated on July 8, 1995, Kathy's vocation included a unique "call within a call"—to accompany diocesan priests, bishops, and seminarians in their interior life through the mission of the Institute for Priestly Formation.

Through three decades of prayer, sacrifice, friendship, and spiritual accompaniment, Kathy has touched countless lives and strengthened the mission of IPF through her witness of faith.

Thank you, Kathy, for 30 years of fidelity, service, and love.

On Wednesday evening, seminarians gathered at Christ the King Parish in Omaha for adoration and benediction as part of IPF's annual Friends' Night. Each seminarian participating in the Summer Program is paired with a prayer partner who faithfully prays for him throughout the six-week program. Friends' Night provides a special opportunity for seminarians and their prayer partners to meet for the first time, sharing an evening of prayer followed by fellowship.

The evening concluded on a joyful note as several seminarians formed an impromptu band and performed an original song they had written in honor of St. Thérèse of the Little Flower. They then invited everyone to join in a spirited sing-along of John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads," bringing the community together in a memorable celebration of faith and friendship.
