As soon as it seemed to have begun, 2016 is coming to a close.
Though the consensus from the general population at large is decrying 2016 as the “worst year ever,” it would appear that the opposite is true when it comes to the Catholic community in Denver. This Jubilee Year of Mercy was also one of grace.
From the outpouring of prayer that occurred throughout the year, to the overflowing grace at the first-ever Sealed & Sent, the presence of the Holy Spirit descended upon the archdiocese in spades in 2016.
It wasn’t all good, however; one of the archdiocese’s beloved pastors passed away, and though a hard battle was fought, Proposition 106 passed, legalizing physician-assisted suicide in Colorado.
