Mass celebrated in front of Denver’s Planned Parenthood starts new phase of pro-life ministry
Featured photo by Tom Uebbing/CNA Catholics gathered across the street from Denver’s Planned Parenthood abortion facility, the largest in Colorado, Aug. 14 for the launch of a new pro-life initiative: 40 Days for Life 365. In doing so, Denver joined a growing list of cities in the US hosting a year-round prayer vigil rather than a fall and spring campaign of 40 Days. “God has shown us through tens of thousands of saved babies (i.e. miracles) that prayer is our most powerful

Responding to the “Mass” Exodus
Photo by Adam Boyle on Unsplash The Catholic Church, along with every major Protestant denomination, has witnessed a precipitous decline in Church attendance. This slide, set off during the 1960s, has accelerated with the rapid rise of the “nones,” Americans claiming no religious affiliation. We could wonder, has the bottom fallen out with this huge exodus? Or put more theologically, has Christ abandoned his Church? Moments of crisis test us, calling us to exercise great hope

A letter from the bishops of Colorado on COVID-19 vaccine mandates
We, the Catholic bishops of Colorado, consistent with our previous letters on COVID-19 vaccines, affirm that the use of some COVID-19 vaccines is morally acceptable under certain circumstances. Throughout the pandemic we have cooperated with the various secular authorities and encouraged Catholics to help each other, and the broader society, remain healthy and safe during this challenging time. We understand that some individuals have well-founded convictions that lead them

Biden Administration instates moratorium on federal executions
On July 1, 2021, the Biden Administration ordered a halt of all federal executions. The Justice Department will review the policies and practices of federal execution during the moratorium, including the use of barbiturate pentobarbital for lethal injections after reports that it caused severe pain following the injection. The temporary pause follows the Trump Administration’s decision to resume federal executions in 2019 with the last execution occurring earlier this year.

Dressing like a Catholic
Is there a Catholic way to dress? Well, there’s no Catholic uniform (at least apart from school plaid). An early Christian of the second century said as much when writing a letter to Diognetus: “With regard to dress, food and manner of life in general, [Christians] follow the customs of whatever city they happen to be living in, whether it is Greek or foreign.” I have heard people take this sentiment too far, however, by saying, “God doesn’t care about what I wear.” To dress

The talk on Catholic dating today: A balm from the Spirit
Featured photo by Everton Vila on Unsplash Exhausted by a broken dating world which has been likened to The Hunger Games , — yes, even among Catholics — where checklisting, ghosting, swiping, and text-rejecting followed by text-flirting followed again by text-rejecting has taken the place of simplicity and humility in front of the other, Chris and Natalie Stefanick’s June 24 talk on dating at the Our Lady of Lourdes Gathering at the Grotto summer series was a balm from the S
