Featuring

Most Reverend Fabian Bruskewitz

With an Introduction by

Archbishop of St Louis


Bishop Bruskewitz will be discussing:
“Some Contemporary Issues in Catholic Theology”

Bishop Bruskewitz will discuss the authentic meaning of freedom as well as other current issues important to Catholics.

The Bishop of the Diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska is a man who needs no introduction to faithful Catholics. A shepherd willing to take a stand for truth when others seem reluctant to speak out, he is a prelate who accepts the blows and arrows from a hostile secular media, dissidents within the Church, and left-wing politicians while he strives to lead his flock to eternal salvation.

He is certainly not without credentials. He was ordained in Rome in July of l960 and served as assistant pastor at various parishes near Milwaukee. He did his graduate work at the Gregorian University in Rome. For eleven years he worked in the Congregation for Catholic Education in Rome. He was named a Monsignor in 1976 and elevated to prelate of honor in 1980. In that same year he became the pastor of St. Bernard Parish in suburban Milwaukee. In 1992 he became the eighth Bishop of the Diocese of Lincoln. And what a job he has done!

When other dioceses were closing churches and schools, he has opened two new parishes and a new elementary school. While many Catholic seminaries were being shuttered he established St. Gregory the Great Seminary in Lincoln. The Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter also built their seminary in his diocese.

The Diocese of Lincoln assumed ownership of Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital in Lincoln to preserve its Catholic nature. We could go on and on in our praise of this good Bishop, but most of you already know his story.
