This Easter has seen some 633 men, women and children become Catholic across the Diocese of Lansing. That’s the highest number of Easter converts in over a decade. Deo gratias.

One parish that has been particularly blessed with a significant number of converts is Saint Thomas Aquinas and Saint John Student Center in East Lansing. On Saturday, the parish clergy received some 33 souls into the Church.

We asked Natalie Kolano, a young parishioner and recent graduate of Michigan State University in Digital Storytelling, to capture the sights and sounds of a special evening. Here’s her film. Enjoy! The voice you will here preaching is Father Corey Bilodeau, the parish’s Parochial Vicar.
