On Nov. 8, Bishop Thomas Zinkula drew a name out of a bucket to see who would win the opportunity to dine at his house.

The diocesan Office of Multicultural Ministry hosted the raffle as a way to raise money for its upcoming youth conference and other ministry activities. The tickets sold for $20, and nearly 400 tickets were sold.

The prize is a meal for for the winner and nine friends prepared by Bishop Zinkula, Father Joseph Sia, Father Rudy Juarez and Father Guillermo Trevino, with a musical presentation by Father Ross Epping. The winner will also receive a life-sized image of Our Lady of Guadalupe as a remembrance of the day.

The winner of the raffle is Father Dan Dorau, parochial vicar of Divine Mercy Parish in Burlington.
