Lyke House Celebrates 25 Years of Dedication, Discipleship, and Evangelization

My dear Friends,

Blessings and joy as we celebrate this year of Jubilee, Evangelization, and Missionary Discipleship proclaimed by the Lyke House.

“The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy”
(Ps. 126:3).

In this Jubilee Year, we celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Dedication of the Lyke House multi-purpose student center named in honor of Archbishop James Patterson Lyke, OFM, the fourth Archbishop of Atlanta.

We were honored to have Archbishop Shelton Joseph Fabre the Metropolitan Archbishop of Louisville Kentucky as our Principal Celebrant. We are so grateful to Archbishop Shelton for the wonderful Silver Jubilee Dedication Mass celebration we had on October 27, 2024. May God Bless Archbishop Shelton and all Participants of Lyke House Silver Jubilee Celebration.

“A Jubilee year is above all the year of Christ, who brings life and grace to humanity.”

It is a year to give thanks to God and return God’s gift with increase by giving back and helping others. Therefore, we are inviting all Alumni to please join us in this year long of great jubilee celebration by making a legacy gift to the Lyke House. Please click this link to be a legacy giver. The Lord loves a cheerful giver and He will divinely multiply your reward.

Blessings and Joy, Fr. Mark
