As we continue to celebrate the May election of Pope Leo XIV, the 266th successor of Saint Peter and the first American pope, CIA-Faith Mission Operatives would like to invite your parishioners to join us for one of the Catholic Church’s most intriguing “Pope stories”! 

On Monday, November 17th at 7 p.m. in the Xavier Fine Arts Theatre, Fr. James Jugenheimer of Appleton’s St. Pius X Parish, will present “FINDING THE FISHERMAN’S BONES – The fascinating story of the Vatican search for St. Peter’s tomb.”  

The location of Saint Peter’s tomb is well known now, but for centuries it remained hidden in an ancient Roman burial ground deep beneath the main altar of the Vatican basilica that bears his name. How, by whom, and when was his grave finally discovered? Why is he buried there? And how do we know it’s really him?

A teacher in his early years, Fr. Jim excels in his ability to research and bring to life the details of some of our faith’s many intriguing stories and mysteries, including this one!
