Bishop Richard F. Stika took the opportunity to discuss one of his favorite subjects — saints — with a school full of eager students during a visit to St. Joseph School on Nov. 3.

Bishop Stika celebrated Mass at the North Knoxville school on the first school day after All Saints Day, which was Saturday, Nov. 1.

Many of the students were dressed as their favorite saints to mark the occasion.

Bishop Stika also toured the school with Father Chris Michelson and principal Andy Zengel.
