Rome Reports

We are called to live our faith in the public square every day, not just on Sundays in Church. As such, it is our duty to stay informed and to understand current issues in society and how they affect us, our family, and the common good.
Current Issues
The Archdiocese of Boston has provided a series of resources and links to other good Catholic resources to help us form our consciences so that when we encounter controversial or just complex matters, we can respond in a way that is loving, true, and faithful to the will of God and the natural law. Other good resources include the Massachusetts Catholic Conference and the US Bishops Conference websites.
We encourage you to explore these resources and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact Father and make an appointment to meet with him.
In the meantime, we encourage you to follow reliable Catholic news sources such as the following for the latest news. -
