INTRODUCTION

Hello. My name is Father Bob Roh. I have been a Catholic priest of the Diocese of Lincoln for 42 years. I have been Superintendent of Sacred Heart School and Pastor of Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Falls City, Nebraska, since 1988. I am very involved in the school and wear many hats. Besides being superintendent, I teach Senior Religion and a course in Graphic Arts. I help coach 7-12 track each spring, with attention to the hurdles and pole vault. Add this to my duties as pastor of Sts. Peter and Paul Parish, I am very busy. But…..I enjoy it that way and would not trade my assignment here in southeast Nebraska.

PHILOSOPHY

Every student deserves to have the bar set a bit higher than she/he can reach, no matter what his/her innate ability. To whom much is given, much will be asked.
