My wife and I were happy to attend the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty’s Canterbury Gala in NYC. There we ran into honoree Cardinal Timothy Dolan, with whom I worked alongside on school-choice issues. Also at the event were Fr. Timothy Hynes, the chaplain for the St. Thomas…
As a Catholic convert, I love the smell of incense. So, I was delighted to see this recent photo of Pope Leo XIV. I love the beautiful vestments the Holy Father has been wearing, too.
Last night @BostonCathedral, Archbishop Henning celebrated a Mass for Pope Leo XIV. With prayers offered in multiple languages and nearly 1,500 faithful in attendance, the celebration reflected the beautiful diversity of the Church. (Photos: Greg Tracy, The Boston Pilot)
Our son David graduated this past week from the University of Colorado Boulder - pictured here with his older brother. Hard to believe they are all grown up.
Happy 75th birthday (February 6th) to Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York. Dolan was appointed Archbishop of New York in 2009 by Pope Benedict XVI and earlier as the Archbishop of Milwaukee by Pope John Paul II. Cardinal Dolan is one of the finest people I’ve ever met and has…
Check out this excellent column by Bill McGurn on school choice. This could be the year school choice is extended to all 50 states through federal action.
While the teachers unions were cheering on Covid school closings, Catholic school students were in their classrooms. The contrast launched a parents revolution, writes @wjmcgurn on.wsj.com/3Cdz8Je
Visiting this legendary Catholic classical school on Thursday. Very excited.
St. Thomas More Teaching Fellow Sean Callaghan assisted Fr. Michael Della Penna OFM with the Rite of Reception of a relic of St. John Paul II gifted to St. Leonard’s Church by the Archbishop Emeritus of Krakow, Poland. Sean teaches middle-school theology at St. John’s School in…
I love the Thomas Aquinas College policy of banning cell phones in academic buildings. It leads to a piling up of phones outside the academic buildings, but allows undistracted intellectual conversations in their Socratic-style classrooms.
On Tuesday this week, I will be at Thomas Aquinas College in Northfield MA recruiting for the St. Thomas More Teaching Fellowship.
In Boston this week and had to stop by one of my favorite churches, St. Leonard’s Church in the North End, Boston’s Italian neighborhood. The church was built 150 years ago by Italian immigrants and the Franciscans. The pastor of St. Leonard’s is local boy Fr. Michael Della…
I am in the historic Baltimore Harbor today for the annual assembly of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). This is my last meeting as an (unpaid) consultor for their Committee on Education. During my term, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed interacting with bishops around the…
This week, I met with students at the Honors College at Belmont Abbey College in North Carolina, a program focused on the Great Books. A lot of interest in the Catholic Talent Project’s flagship initiative, the St. Thomas More Teaching Fellowship.
After a very successful recruiting trip to Wyoming Catholic College, I am off on an overnight flight to North Carolina to visit Belmont Abbey College to recruit students there to join the Catholic Talent Project’s St. Thomas More Teaching Fellowship. Below is a picture of the…
My thoughts on how to reclaim our Catholic schools. Informed by my conversion to Catholicism and my recently concluded five years as Superintendent of Schools for the Archdiocese of Boston. firstthings.com/web-exclusives…
After speaking at a conference hosted by Duc in Altum in Houston, I finally got to meet in person with Brett Salkeld, the author of one of my favorite books: “Educating for Eternity: Making Every Class Catholic.”Our Sunday Visitor asked me to write the foreword to this important…
Monsignor James Shea, President of University of Mary in Bismarck, is undoubtedly one of the finest Catholic preachers in America today - in the league of the late Bishop Fulton Sheen and Bishop Robert Barron. I was privileged to hear him preach at St Patrick’s yesterday. His…
Perhaps the most enduring legacy of the late Cardinal O’Connor of NY was his inspiration to create, with the cooperation of the Holy Spirit, the Sisters of Life. Their charism is to focus on the sanctity of life. Pics are from Napa Institute’s NYC Eucharistic Procession.
