I was deeply saddened to learn today of the sudden passing of Father Norman Fischer of St. Peter Claver in Lexington, Ky. Father Norman invited me to visit the parish in 2022 to attend Mass with both the neighborhood parishioners as well as the Congolese Catholic Community.
I returned to St. Peter Claver this spring to see the new worship space, which Father Norman helped oversee.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
