Catholic Review
Filed Under: Bishop Lewandowski, Bishops, Charity in Truth, Commentary, From the Archbishop

In early April, it was announced that Pope Francis appointed Bishop Bruce A. Lewandowski, C.Ss.R., to be the next bishop of Providence, R.I. The Holy Father could not have chosen a better bishop to guide that important diocese in the years ahead.

Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, From the Archbishop

Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, From the Archbishop

It’s no secret that in recent years many Catholics have absented themselves from the Eucharist and there are many reasons for this. But none of these reasons outweighs the depth, the beauty and the reality of Christ’s Presence and his power to change our lives by his transformative love.

Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, From the Archbishop, Seek the City to Come

Sustainable parishes are being formed that will have what it takes to offer a full range of pastoral services and to evangelize the neighborhoods they are in, while continuing ministries of service.

The great restoration

April 2, 2024
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, From the Archbishop

Just as an old car is most thoroughly restored when its body is removed from its frame, something like that happens when we die: our body and soul are separated until the resurrection of the dead.

Putting faith into action

December 14, 2023
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, From the Archbishop

The family of the Church responded to them by striving to carry out the mission that Jesus entrusted to us.

How shall we continue?

December 4, 2023
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Child & Youth Protection, Commentary, From the Archbishop

Pope Francis wrote about encountering Christ and the joy of evangelizing, a church that goes forth, not hiding or shrinking from challenges, but embracing them in openness and love to all.

Ministry to LGBT Catholics and their families must balance a “life-giving” tension between showing love and a genuine sense of welcome to all while also faithfully teaching the truth about human sexuality revealed by God in creation, Scripture and tradition.

Spiritual Exercise

July 19, 2023
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, From the Archbishop

A great act of charity is to accompany a person or family who is thinking of coming back to church.

By Archbishop William E. Lori
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Commentary, From the Archbishop

Pope Francis continually proclaims that the cure for all forms of self-referentiality is a continual and authentic encounter with the person of Christ.
