Fr. Tady celebrates 70 years of religious life
Members of the U.S. Province will kick off the start of next week’s Provincial Chapter with a celebration: Fr. Leonard Tadyszak’s 70th year in vows. A Milwaukee native, Fr. “Tady,” as he is often called, learned of the Priests of the Sacred Heart through an advertisement in a religious magazine. “It was so small I could barely see it,” he said of the ad. “But I felt like I was called to serve the Sacred Heart so I contacted them…”

Fr. General’s letter for the Feast of the Sacred Heart
Sharing the Dehonian Charism; Fr. General’s letter for the Feast of the Sacred Heart. “From May 15 to 20 this year, the Dehonian Family gathered in Rome. The meeting reminded us that we, the Congregation, are not the only ones who have been the recipients of the gift of the charism of Léon Dehon.
