MONONA/DARLINGTON — Students at Catholic schools in Monona and Darlington will have more to look forward to as the school year starts than just seeing their friends again and learning new lessons.
Both Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) School in Monona and Holy Rosary School in Darlington have just completed building their new playgrounds, fully ready for recess times.

MADISON — When Bishop Robert C. Morlino came to Madison as our new bishop in 2003, he said he hoped to practice BLT: “Badger them lovingly with the truth.”
Bishop Morlino has continued to practice BLT throughout his 15 years as Bishop of Madison. “That’s what I’m doing every blessed day,” he has said. “I know that some feel more badgered than others, but I hope to help them to be both badgered and loved.”
He will celebrate the 15th anniversary of his installation on August 1. He was installed as the fourth Bishop of Madison on August 1, 2003. The pro-life community in the diocese will be hosting a 5:30 p.m. Mass with Bishop Morlino at St. Mary Catholic Church of Pine Bluff, to which all are invited.
“My greatest joy continues to be in terms of the number of seminarians and vocations in the diocese,” said Bishop Morlino. “We pray that the Lord will continue to bless us.”
When he came, there were six diocesan seminarians. That number grew to a high of 33 seminarians.
MADISON — On July 25, 1968, Blessed Pope Paul VI promulgated his encyclical Humanae vitae.
The document reaffirmed the Catholic Church’s teaching about the duty of married couples to collaborate freely and responsibly with God the Creator in the creation of new human life, and therefore, the rejection of artificial contraception.
Nearly 50 years later, on the evening of July 21, 2018, the Diocese of Madison marked the anniversary with a Mass of Thanksgiving, celebrated by Bishop Robert C. Morlino of Madison, and a talk by Dr. Janet Smith, noted writer and speaker on Humanae vitae and related topics.
MADISON — On Sunday, July 29, at 3 p.m., massgoers at Blessed Sacrament Church in Madison will not only fulfill their Sunday obligation to attend Mass, they will also experience some of the rich history and liturgical tradition of the parish and the Dominican Order.
The Mass will be a Traditional Latin Mass in what is called the “Dominican Rite”.
It will be celebrated by Fr. James Dominic Rooney, OP, who is in residence at the parish this summer while working on his doctorate from Saint Louis University.
Two priests and YOU, walking in the path of a future saint!
All high school and college-age students are invited to join Fr. Greg Ihm and Fr. Eric Sternberg on a three-day walking pilgrimage through Iowa, Illinois, and Southern Wisconsin, following in the footsteps of Venerable Fr. Samuel Mazzuchelli, OP, and learning about his incredible life of holiness.
