UPCOMING EVENTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
Henry Dorsch
“A good man goes home to a good God. May his gentle soul rest in peace.” —Fr Kingsley Ihejirika
It is with tremendous sadness that we share the news of Father Henry Dorsch's passing. Since 1968, Fr. Dorsch served the Diocese of Springfield with kindness and generosity. He touched many lives at both Annunciation and Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish, and his kindness and steady presence will be deeply missed.
