"I will never forget having Eucharistic adoration in the woods during autumn. Hearing the wind blow, seeing the leaves fall; there's something so special about worshiping Christ in the midst of His creation.” – Aaron Vrbka, UNL ‘24

#Easter Blessings! Our long journey through Lent has come to an end as we experience the pure joy of Jesus' resurrection on this #EasterSunday. This is really not an end, though, it's the beginning of a new journey to grow closer to our Lord every day.

It's great to be at #MarchForLife in Washington, D.C. with nearly 200 students from the Diocese of Lincoln! We've celebrated Mass, listened to great pro-life speakers and made a clear statement about the importance of caring for mothers and protecting life, including the unborn.
