A winter storm that enveloped Ohio last week brought ice and snow to all parts of the diocese and left its remnants in many places, including Junction City St. Patrick Church and cemetery. 

Father Michael Lumpe, vicar for senior and infirm priests in the diocese and vice rector and dean of men in the College of Liberal Arts at the Pontifical College Josephinum, captured these images while traveling to the parish to celebrate Sunday Mass on Feb. 6.

Catholic schools in the diocese were shut down for two days and travel was difficult throughout the region. Some areas were left without power for several days.
