FROM THE ARCHBISHOP

March 26, 2026Archbishop William E. Lori
Not all of us are called to heroic discipleship like Ignatius, but each of us is called to holiness and to some work God that God has entrusted to no one else.

5th Sunday of Lent
March 23, 2026Archbishop William E. Lori

Saturday 4th Week of Lent; Knights of Columbus Mass
March 23, 2026Archbishop William E. Lori

He is not merely a prophet, nor merely a man wiser than the rest of men, but the Incarnate Son of God, the Word made flesh, the Crucified Lord, whose truth we cannot fully fathom and whose love exceeds imagination. To know him, even somewhat, brings joy and consolation.

“Who here was born in the 1800s? Anybody? I am sure one of these teachers was,” he asked, as the students giggled.
