On the weekend of March 14-15, 2020 the M.I. Initiative promoting consecration to the Immaculate and enrollment in the Militia of the Immaculate made its 20th stop at St. Anne Catholic Church, in Columbus, GA.  Due to the Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic, attendance at the four Masses was limited but over 1400 of the faithful followed the celebrations on live stream. The friars of Franciscan Martyrs Friary (Columbus, GA): Fr. Robert Schlageter, OFM Conv. (Guardian and Pastor of St. Anne’s), Fr. Noel Danielewicz, OFM Conv. (Pastor of St. Benedict the Moor Parish where the MI Tour plans to visit on March 19th as Tour Stop #21), Fr. Bob Benko, OFM Conv. (Pastor of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church where the MI Tour plans to visit on the weekend of March 21-22nd as Tour Stop #22), Fr. Manny Vasconcelos, OFM Conv. (Parochial Vicar of St. Anne’s & Campus Ministry Chaplain at Columbus State University), and Fr. Paul Pantiru, OFM Conv. (Parochial Vicar of St. Anne’s) are joyfully hosting their confrere, Fr. Jobe, as he visits their Columbus pastoral ministries. The parishioners pf St. Anne’s were very appreciative in welcoming our M.I. Initiative as well. Some are seen below in the photo taken just before they worked on disinfecting the pews and doors before the next Mass.
