May this great pilgrim of joy and peace and hope safely reach his destination, the joy of the Kingdom of God that he proclaimed so insistently and effectively. Even as we pray for Pope Francis, may he pray for us that we may proclaim with similar conviction the joy of the Gospel in every community of this Premier See.Read More
I learned this morning with great sadness of the death of Pope Francis. Just yesterday, he greeted the crowds in Rome, as if to say farewell to the People of God whom he loved so dearly and served so devotedly. May his great soul rest in peace.Read More

Welcome to the Archdiocese of Baltimore
God calls the Catholics of the Archdiocese of Baltimore to be a welcoming, worshipping community of faith, hope, and love. Through his Spirit, the Lord Jesus lives in those who believe, and reaches into our world with his saving message and healing love.
Pope Francis’ teachings and writings have had a major influence on several programs in the Archdiocese of Baltimore, notably its two-year Seek the City to Come initiative and its ongoing evangelization efforts.
Alejandro Cañadas, now an associate professor of economics at Mount St. Mary’s University in Emmitsburg, met then-Archbishop Jorge Mario Bergoglio several times from 1991 to 1997 when he was a college student in his native Argentina.
To the chanting of Christ's promise, "I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live," the mortal remains of Pope Francis were carried into St. Peter's Basilica by 14 pallbearers.
Thousands of people had made an early morning pilgrimage to St. Peter's Square April 23 to witness the transfer and pray for the late pope; they erupted in applause when his body, in an open casket, reached the square and again when it reached the top of the basilica steps.
This evening, St. Ignatius Catholic Community - Baltimore had an evening of prayer for the soul of Pope Francis.
The Mass was sponsored with the help of
