The Diocese of Wichita is doing something right.
They have a 195% priest replacement rate (meaning the diocese has nearly double the number of seminarians needed to replace retiring or deceased priests).
The vast majority of seminarians come from homeschool or parochial schools. The diocesan Catholic schools are authentically Catholic.
Adoration chapels across the entire diocese. Praying for vocations is part of every parish’s culture.
Weekly Mass attendance is through the roof. Liturgies are reverent and embrace tradition.
If I’m a Catholic bishop, I’m looking at this diocese and taking notes. The blueprint for Catholic renewal in the USA is in Kansas.
This is so sweet.
