Illuminating Catholics
Retired priests - Father Collison and Father Schrad share their active lives
Retired priests Father Craig Collison and Father Merlin Schrad have a long history of ministry in the diocese and also share a longtime friendship. Each share their background and ministry path. Surprisingly, they served in many of the same locations - just not at the same time. Although retired, they both remain busy with helping active priests by assisting with Masses, confessions, visiting the sick and more. When able, they do enjoy some down time!
With the Easter Retired and Infirm Priest Collection coming April 19 and 20, Each shares their appreciation for those who generously give to support the priests who have faithfully served us for many years. Learn more.
