On Saturday, July 31, Friar Joshua Critchley OFM professed his Solemn Vows at St. Joseph Church in Winsted, Connecticut. Fr. Robert Campagna, OFM, Minister Provincial, received Josh’s vows.
Fr. Robert was assisted by Friars Patrick Boyle, OFM, Provincial Vicar, Richard Martignetti, OFM, and several concelebrants. Fr. Bruce Czapla, OFM, Pastor of St. Joseph’s, was the Master of Ceremonies.
Being a native son of the parish, many family and friends attended the liturgy, including a nice group of friars from other provinces who knew Josh through his formation studies in Chicago. The parish hosted a dinner in the parish hall. Congratulations Josh.
