Franciscans' 100 Years at Carey


Fr. Aloys Fish, pastor of Our Lady of Consolation Shrine from 1911 - 1929.

2012 marks the 100th year that the Conventual Franciscan Friars have ministered at Our Lady of Consolation Shrine in Carey. The friars are planning two special events: a Mass with Toledo Bishop Leonard Blair on May 25, and on September 22-23, the Minister General of the Conventual Franciscans will visit the Shrine.

There's a great collection of historic photos of the shrine at this link. The photos were taken by photographer Ernst Niebergall.
