I rise today to express my congratulations to the Most Reverend John Michael DArcy. Bishop of the Diocese of Fort WayneSouth Bend. who is celebrating the 50th anniversary of his ordination to the Priesthood. In the past 50 years countless individuals. both Catholic and not. have experienced the wisdom and love of Bishop DArcy and each of them can be grateful for having known him. Bishop DArcy. the son of Irish immigrants. was born on August 18. 1932. He recalls feeling called to the priesthood at a very young age. hoping to follow in the footsteps of his childhood priests. Immediately following high school he entered Saint Johns Seminary in Brighton.
