At the event, Bishop Blase J. Cupich presented the Bishop’s Medal, the highest award the Diocese of Spokane can bestow, to the Sisters of Providence, Mother Joseph Province.
In the past, he said, the award has been given to individuals and key contributors. This year, as Catholic Charities marked its centennial, the bishop said he wanted to give the medal to someone who has been an active participant in service to others for the past 100 years.
