As the Orange Diocesan Council of Catholic Women (ODCCW) celebrates its 50th Anniversary, we invite you to a unique morning of storytelling, history, and fellowship. Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of the Church’s historical records? Fr. Chris Heath will answer the question: “What’s a nice priest like me doing in a place like Archives?”
A Story of Faith and Heritage
Fr. Chris will take us on a journey through the surprising connections between his personal life and the Diocese of Orange. Using a blend of photographs and his signature quick wit, he will share:
- Personal ties to diocesan history.
- His own family story and vocation.
- An inside look at the archives department and its importance.
This promises to be a faith-filled and fun event that brings our local Catholic history to life.
