Key Note - Bishop Mike Izen
We’re beyond excited to have Auxiliary Bishop Michael Izen joining us as this year’s keynote speaker! Bishop Izen wears many hats—pastor of St Francis of Assisi in Lake St Croix Beach as well as helping lead the Archdiocese alongside Archbishop Bernard Hebda and Auxiliary Bishop Kevin Kenney, serving the vibrant faith community across the Twin Cities metro.
With a heart for life and a deep commitment to the Church, Bishop Izen will be sharing a powerful message on a prolife theme. We’re honored to have his voice, his wisdom, and his presence with us this evening!

Emcee - Mike Langer
We’re thrilled to welcome this year’s emcee: the one and only Mike Langer, Principal of Maternity of Mary–Saint Andrew School!
With a background in media broadcasting and a daily knack for managing the delightful chaos of school life, Mr. Langer brings both charisma and calm to the mic.
We’re confident he’ll guide us through the evening with humor, heart, and a touch of principal polish!
