Looking for your reflections!

In honor of the 25th anniversary of the Diocese of Colorado Springs in January 2009, The Colorado Catholic Herald is putting together a special commemorative issue.

We're looking for those people who have been in the diocese for at least the last 15 years or so to give us their perspective on the growth of the diocese and their favorite memories, such as stories about favorite priests, religious, building of churches, and any other fond recollections. This will be used in a historical flashback-type story. We'd also like to know from all people, whether they just arrived in the diocese yesterday or have been here before the diocese's creation, to answer one simple question: "What do you like best about the Diocese of Colorado Springs?"

Please post your responses in the comment box (with your full name and town/parish) or send your responses to editor@coloradocatholicherald.com or mail them by Dec. 23 to The Colorado Catholic Herald, Anniversary Memories, 228 N. Cascade Ave., Colorado Springs, CO 80903.
