Message From the Bishop
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God! The Eucharist (Christ’s thanksgiving) is the source and summit of the Christian life, and it is the unifying theme for our diocese. May you find inspiration within this site to become more engaged in the life of the Catholic Church here in the Diocese of Jefferson City! Welcome!
