Deacon Michael Rowland Ministers at Parishes in Christopher, Sesser and Benton
FRANKLIN COUNTY, IL (Liz Quirin, Belleville Messenger – Please click on the link to leave the full story. Here is an excerpt) Deacon Michael Rowland wears many hats as he ministers at St. Andrew Parish in Christopher and the partner parishes of St. Mary in Sesser and St. Joseph in Benton. Not a cradle Catholic, he said people suggested Catholics were, to say the least, unusual in their beliefs. When he went to high school, he began to meet some of these “unusual” people, and he found them to be “completely normal.” Intrigued, he said he bought a copy of the “Catechism of the Catholic Church,” and began investigating the faith.
