When it comes to going to college don’t panic if you hear, “your student may need to follow one of these alternative paths.” Not all kids are built for a major university or college. 

Fr. Giuseppe Grimaldi is celebrating birthday number 81 today (September 1st)! We have a candid conversation with Father Joe about his 62 years of service as first a Christian Brother and the last 31 years as a Catholic Priest. Happy Birthday Fr. Joe!  

Catholics use religious articles to remind them of God and as a motivation to willingly serve God and their neighbor. They are also reminders of the saints (just as a photograph reminds you of a loved one)  and in reminding us of the saints they remind us also of how these saints loved God – such a reminder serves as an example for us to follow.  

In January 2021, Pope Francis announced the first World Day for Grandparents. Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron gathered with parishioners from across the Archdiocese of Detroit to celebrate St. Anne, the Grandmother of Jesus, on July 26 at the Basilica of Ste. Anne.

Mother Mary Lange Catholic School will be the first new Catholic school built in Baltimore in 60 years! Sister Rita Michelle said “Loving God, let this be a place where the laughter of children is heard, and everyone will be treated with loving respect,”. “May these holy grounds be a place of peace, offering refuge from chaos and doubt. 

After 31 years as a member of the Christian Brothers, Fr. Joe Grimaldi entered the seminary. He was ordained August 4, 1990. Sit back and enjoy this wonderful story.  

Saying he was acting for the good of the unity of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis has restored limits on the celebration of the Mass according to the Roman Missal in use before the Second Vatican Council, overturning or severely restricting permissions St. John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI had given to celebrate the so-called Tridentine-rite Mass. Despite the recent decision of Pope Francis to curtail celebration of the Latin Mass, we are not going to see it disappear anytime soon for a simple reason: Local bishops can and will still permit it.

Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron celebrated his 25th episcopal jubilee. His colleagues have said, “There goes an Apostle”, another said, "Your docility to the Holy Spirit is incredibly admirable." Our prayers and a big thank you for your dedicated service.

The 84-year-old pontiff left Rome's Gemelli hospital in Rome July 14th. He's started a period of near-total rest and rehabilitation expected to last at least two weeks. I've been asked by the faithful "Who was in charge while he hospitalized?"

While some parishes are named for Christ (Sacred Heart, Divine Savior, Holy Cross, Good Shepherd, etc.), most parishes are named after a patron saint. You’ll usually see a likeness of that Saint within the body of Catholic Church. How do we know what St. Peter looked like?
