Calling all parents, teachers and other leaders of the youth of the Diocese of Green Bay!
This is the place to submit unanswered questions on behalf of children and students about faith, teachings, practices, discipleship and everything in between. Bishop Ricken will then take the time to answer a question in each issue of the On Mission magazine; this will be featured on the “Family Activities Page.”
Bishop David Ricken encourages all the faithful youth of the Diocese of Green Bay to actively engage in all aspects of the Catholic faith — including prayer and the sacraments — but most importantly, to ask questions.
Expression of curiosity, especially in prayer, helps us to grow in humility and deepen our relationship with God — the relationship above all others.
Adults (teachers, parents, or other leaders of youth) can submit questions on behalf of their children, families, or students using the form below. Thank you for submitting your question today!
