Blessed Rev. Stanley Francis Rother Media Center


We are dedicated to the promotion of literature and research in a Catholic Christian environment.

The library at Bishop McGuinness Catholic High School is named in honor of Blessed Reverend Stanley F. Rother. Stanley Rother, a native of Okarche, Oklahoma, was ordained to the priesthood in 1963 at the age of 28. In 1968, after serving various parishes in Oklahoma, Fr. Rother was assigned—at his own request—to the mission at Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala. Fr. Rother faithfully continued this work until his martyrdom in 1981. Fr. Rother was beatified in 2017 at a Mass at the Cox Convention Center in Oklahoma City; prayers and efforts for his canonization are ongoing.
