A virtual Taste of Faith livestream event will air on August 8 at 7:00 p.m. The live webcast can be accessed through the DOLR website (dolr.org), Facebook page or YouTube channel.

Please consider making a generous donation to support our seminarians. Checks should be made payable to the Knights of Columbus, with Seminarian Support in the memo line. Your check can be mailed to Rick Phillips, Financial Secretary, 11 Vuelta Lane, Hot Springs Village, AR, 71909; or you can drop your donation check in an offertory basket at mass.
The featured seminarian this week is Christopher Elser. His biography can be found on the DOLR website at https://www.dolr.org/clergy/christopher-elser.
In addition to their classwork, seminarians
attend Mass daily, make a daily holy hour, receive spiritual direction and go regularly to the sacrament of Reconciliation. In prayer, they seek God's will for their lives and acquire the spiritual maturity they will need as seminarians and, God willing, priests of Jesus Christ.

There are currently 27 seminarians in the Diocese of Little Rock. With the increases in cost and number of seminarians, the diocese needs our help to form our future priests. Msgr. Scott Friend recently said, “We just have to trust that the Lord will provide for us what we need. I know that the Lord will take care of us, our people will take care of us”.
