As the Diocese of Duluth discerns a potential cause for its patriarch, Msgr. Joseph Buh, who died in 1922, two new resources for Catholics getting to know the holy priest have been released: A new website dedicated to him and a short biographical booklet talking about his life and ministry.

The whole idea of canonization should feel closer to home for us as a diocese, and it certainly seems more real to me personally, since we are in the beginning stages of discerning a “cause” for one of our very own in Msgr. Joseph Buh.
