  • Ralph Lauren, American Patriot

    January 21, 2025 - 5:00am

    On January 4 , President Joe Biden honored nineteen individuals with the Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor. While one could argue that some were less deserving of the award than others, I believe that one honoree deserved it without question: Ralph Lauren, a living embodiment of the American dream who in turn made America his muse. His designs pay homage to the cowboy, the soldier, the Ivy Leaguer. For Lauren, no aspect of the American character isn’t worth celebrating—a welcome contrast to the self-loathing that usually pervades the upper echelons of society.

  • Begging Your Pardon

    January 20, 2025 - 5:00am

    Who attempts to overthrow a government without weapons? Why would the alleged leader of an insurrection authorize military force to protect the government, and why would the alleged insurrection victims countermand that authorization? How do people who listen to speeches about democratic procedures and election integrity in one location transform into enemies of the Constitution after walking a mile and a half to the east? Who believes that interrupting a vote would overturn a government? If there was an attempted insurrection, why would a notoriously creative and aggressive prosecutor fail to find any basis for filing insurrection charges?

  • To Hell With Notre Dame?

    January 20, 2025 - 5:00am

    I first visited the University of Notre Dame du Lac (to use its proper inflated style) in 2017 as a guest of some friends in the law school. By then I had already hated the place for more or less my entire life. For me, Notre Dame was synonymous with the Roman Catholic Church as I had known her in childhood: dated folk art aesthetics (has anyone ever written about how ugly the buildings are?), the Breaking Bread missalette, the so-called “Celtic” Alleluia, the thought (though not the actual writings) of Fr. Richard McBrien, jolly fat Knights of Columbus in their blue satin jackets, avuncular permanent deacons named Tom, Pat, or, occasionally, Dave. At the age of twenty-seven, I expected to find preserved something of the religious atmosphere of the middle years of John Paul II’s papacy: the quiet half-acknowledged sense of desperation, the all-pervading horror of unbelief that could never be allowed formally to take shape among the grandchildren of European immigrants who had done well for themselves in the professions—perhaps too well.

  • The Mercurial Bob Dylan

    January 17, 2025 - 5:00am

    There’s a version of Bob Dylan for everyone: small-town boy from Duluth, Minnesota; scrappy folk troubadour of Greenwich Village; electric rock poet who defied expectations at Newport; introspective born-again Christian; Nobel Laureate. As any journalist who has interviewed him will attest, Dylan is an enigma. Capturing the whole man is harder than making a bead of mercury sit still in one’s palm.

  • The Theology of Music

    January 17, 2025 - 5:00am

    É lisabeth-Paule Labat (1897–1975) was an accomplished pianist and composer when she entered the abbey of Saint-Michel de Kergonan in her early twenties. She devoted her later years to writing theology and an “Essay on the Mystery of Music,” published a decade ago as The Song That I Am , translated by Erik Varden . It’s a brilliant and beautiful essay, but what sets it apart from most explorations of music is its deeply theological character.

    July 19, 2025 - 5:09am
    As is known (cf. L’Osservatore Romano , 24 May 2025), the Holy Father has appointed His Eminence Cardinal Robert Sarah, prefect emeritus of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, as his Special Envoy to preside over the liturgical celebrations to be held on the days 25 and 26 July at the Shrine of Sainte-Anne-d’Auray, diocese of Vannes, France, on the occasion of the 400th anniverary of the apparations of Saint Anne to the Breton peasant Yvon Nicolazic.

    It is now necessary to make public the Pontifical Letter and Pontifical Mission, composed of the following ecclesiastics:

    1. Reverend Don Ivan Brient, parish priest of Theix and former vicar general of Vannes;

    2. Reverend Canon Gabriel Jegouzo, dean of the Cathedral Chapter of Vannes.

     

    Letter of the Holy Father

    Venerabili Fratri Nostro

    ROBERTO S.R.E. Cardinali SARAH

    Praefecto emerito Congregationis de Cultu Divino et Disciplina Sacramentorum

    Ineffabilia Regni caelorum mysteria maxime parvulis revelare dignatur Altissimus (cfr Mt 11,25-26). Quam ob rem gratia Dei s. Anna, mater suavissimae Beatae Mariae Virginis, agricolae Ivoni Nicolazic miraculose apparuit, ut renovanti flamma spiritali Aremoricae populi fides exardesceret. Parvum quidem sacellum est exstructum, quod, ob frequentem devotorum concursum, insigne sanctuarium, s. Annae d’Auray dicatum, est factum atque temporis decursu desideratissimus innumerorum peregrinorum locus. Demum aprico die mensis Septembris anno MCMXCVI ad familiarum fidem, spem et caritatem alendas ac vivificandas eo feliciter pervenit et Decessor Noster s. Ioannes Paulus II.

    Fausta igitur occasione capta quadringentesimi anniversarii proximo mense Iulio s. Annae apparitionum in oppido s. Annae d’Auray, Venerabilis Frater Raimundus Centène, Episcopus Venetensis, humanissime papam Franciscum, nunc bo. me., rogavit ut aliquem eximium Purpuratum designaret, qui celebrationibus in commemorationem s. Annae Summi Pontificis nomine praeesset atque verba spiritalis cohortationis pronuntiaret. Piae huic postulationi adnuere volentes et designationem a Decessore Nostro felicis recordationis papa Francisco expressam confirmantes, ad te, Venerabilis Frater Noster, decurrimus, qui, pietate doctrinaque praeditus, sedulus ac diligens emines in vinea Domini operarius.

    Te igitur hisce Litteris MISSUM EXTRAORDINARIUM NOSTRUM nominamus ad celebrationes de quibus supra diximus, quae videlicet diebus XXV-XXVI advenientis mensis Iulii, memoria data s. Annae, in oppido s. Annae d’Auray congruenti ritu agentur.

     

    Cohortabere omnes huius eventus participes ut renovatis viribus novoque studio vivam servent spem ad promissa Dei obtinenda, quippe qui huius Iubilaei copiosa adepti sint spiritalia beneficia et caelestis bonitatis gratias, quae procul dubio in cotidiano sustinendo opere multum afferunt adiumenti.

    Sacrorum Antistitem dioecesis Venetensis, cunctos fideles ibi congregatos, venerabiles Praesules, sacerdotes, religiosos viros mulieresque, publicas auctoritates et christifideles laicos, Nostro salutabis nomine Nostramque iis ostendes benevolentiam.

    Nosmet Ipsi te, Venerabilis Frater Noster, in tua missione implenda precibus comitabimur, s. Anna eiusdemque incomparabili Filia, Beata Maria Virgine, intercedentibus, tibique Apostolicam Benedictionem libentes iam nunc impertimur, signum Nostrae erga te benevolentiae et caelestium donorum pignus, quam omnibus sane celebrationibus participibus rite transmittas volumus.

    Ex Aedibus Vaticanis, die XXV mensis Iunii, Anno Sancto MMXXV, Pontificatus Nostri primo.

  • Message of the Holy Father for the Metropolitan Assembly of the Byzantine Catholic Archeparchy of Pittsburgh

    July 19, 2025 - 3:22am
    The following is the Message sent by the Holy Father Leo XIV to the participants in the Third Metropolitan Assembly of the Byzantine Catholic Archeparchy of Pittsburgh:

     

    Message of the Holy Father

    To the Participants

    in the Third Metropolitan Assembly

    of the Byzantine Catholic Archeparchy of Pittsburgh

    I extend heartfelt greetings to all of you gathered for the Third Assembly of the Byzantine Catholic Church of Pittsburgh, convoked by Metropolitan Archbishop William Skurla and the Council of Hierarchs, taking place at the Church of Saint Mary in Whiting, Indiana.

    Your Assembly, held under the theme  Come, let us worship and bow before Christ,  offers a precious opportunity to grow in unity and to reaffirm your commitment to the Lord. Through your liturgical celebrations, prayerful reflection and fraternal dialogue, you will surely renew your faithful witness to Christ and deepen your proclamation of the Gospel in the rich tradition of the Byzantine Catholic Churches.

    The participation of clergy, religious, and lay faithful, along with representatives from the Exarchate of Toronto and the Dicastery for the Eastern Churches, offers a visible sign of communion in the Church.

    I give thanks for the witness of your forebears, who built vibrant Byzantine communities in North America amidst various challenges and uncertainty. Their legacy continues in your courageous embrace of pastoral renewal, which is rooted in fidelity to your heritage.

    I assure you of my spiritual closeness and entrust your gathering to the intercession of Mary the Mother of God. To all participating in the Assembly, I gladly impart my Apostolic Blessing, which I extend to all in the Archeparchy as a pledge of wisdom, joy and peace in the Lord.

    From the Vatican, 12 July 2025

    LEO PP. XIV

  • Holy See Press Office Press Release: Telephone conversation of the Holy Father with the Prime Minister of Israel

    July 18, 2025 - 6:36am
    This morning, in his residence at Castel Gandolfo, His Holiness Pope Leo XIV spoke by telephone with His Excellency Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, following yesterday’s military attack by the Israeli army that struck the Church of the Holy Family in Gaza, killing three people and injuring others, including some seriously.

    During the conversation, the Holy Father repeated his appeal for a renewed push for negotiations, a ceasefire and an end to the war.  He again expressed his concern about the tragic humanitarian situation of the population in Gaza, whose children, elderly and sick are paying an agonizing price.

    Finally, His Holiness reiterated the urgent need to protect places of worship and, especially, the faithful and all people in Palestine and Israel.
