Re: Statement concerning Bishop Peter Christensen

Bishop Peter returned home on June 13 after a week in the hospital, most of them in the ICU. Now at home, he reports his best sleep in seven days.

Bishop Peter was hospitalized because of a viral autoimmune disorder primarily affecting his back. He expresses his sincere gratitude to St. Alphonsus for the wonderful care he received from doctors, nurses, therapists and all who attended him, particularly Dr. Rachael Steiner, DO, Neurointensivist.

Bishop Peter thanks you for your prayers and asks that you continue to pray for him as he progresses toward full recovery.
