Ten catechists were present at the meeting with Bishop Milan as well as three priests: Fr. Michal Bucko, Fr. Tom Loya, and Fr. Mykhaylo Shkyndya. The weekend included prayer, a talk by Bishop Milan, presentations by Katie Gulas and Fr. Tom Loya, as well as fellowship together and with the parishioners of St. Michael’s.
