Joe Condit and Ken Harrison gathered for a chat in early June and soon found themselves in a Holy Spirit moment. Perhaps a game-changing moment?

P: A mí me ensenaron que hay un primer juicio y un juicio final. No pensé que seríamos levantados al cielo de repente (Rapto), asumiendo que somos creyentes. ¿Es Apocalipsis para nosotros, o para los primeros cristianos? ¿Qué importancia tiene para nosotros hoy? Me parece extraño. Claro, fui criada con el catecismo de Baltimore. He estado leyendo la Biblia, tratando de ponerme al día.

As a young girl, Lucy Marie Fitzmorris found her path to the religious life through a simple, yet impactful encounter: a suggestion from a sister to consider the Order of Saint Benedict.

INDIANAPOLIS – At the close of the National Eucharistic Congress’ final Mass, Bishop Andrew H. Cozzens of Crookston, Minnesota, asked the crowd of 60,000 gathered in Lucas Oil Stadium July 21 if they would take their love of the Eucharist and the church, strengthened over the five days of the congress, and identify one person in their life to intentionally evangelize.

John Smith stood atop the medal stand in Seoul, South Korea, gold draped around his neck, watching the American flag rise while the national anthem rang from the speakers, catching glances and smiles from family and friends in the crowd.

I have been reading the Bible, trying to catch up.

I arrived in Lugo, Spain, at 6:30 a.m., in cold weather of about 40-50 degrees, with scattered drizzle. It was still dark on the road except for those participating in the pilgrimage. There was no one left, not a single trace of local people.

Seems reasonable that the quest for the perfect soul mate should start with a list. Many single Catholics ask themselves: “What should I be looking for in a spouse?” Thus, the need for the list. Is there a make-it-or-break-it list of minimums out there to help guide Catholic singles discerning married life? But who’s list? And where is this list? Can it be trusted? Is it foolproof?

In wooded hills northeast of Oklahoma City, a group of fathers and sons gathered for a weekend of spiritual growth, relaxation and an exploration of true masculinity. And to focus on family.

Many Catholics can use a guide for how to best serve a Holy Hour. Before the Blessed Sacrament. Or even … at home.

Joseph Donald Cahill, priest of the Marianist Residence Community in San Antonio, Texas, died June 18, 2024, at the age of 95 with 74 years of religious profession.

The “Catechism of the Catholic Church” says some interesting things about charity, the supreme theological virtue that, as St. Paul wrote in Colossians 3:14, “binds everything together in perfect harmony.”
