I wanted to bring your attention to some of the excellent
content in this week’s issue of the Register.
n News. First of all, we bring you an excellent overview of
the bishops’ annual meeting that took place this year in Baltimore. You will
hear different reports in the news about what was accomplished there. We hope
that the Register’s coverage will help you sift through it all and see what
actually happened. We also bring you to the Pope’s side to show you what to expect
when new cardinals are created on Christ the King weekend.
n Apostles. The Catholic faith only works when it is
unleashed and allowed to affect the world we live in. In this week’s Inperson
interview, we bring you another example of a Catholic who brings the Church’s
teaching to the streets: Sister Eugenia Bonetti, who battles human trafficking.
But we also introduce you on our education page to Maryanne Wolf, a professor
of child development at Tufts University, who has a more intellectual mission.
n Faith aids. This issue of the Register is also
distinguished by a number of aids for your own faith life. On page 1, Joseph
Pronechen describes different Scripture study programs that are available. The
Culture of Life section recommends quality books for children. And the back of
the Culture of Life section gives you the materials you need to make the most
out of the Advent Jesse Tree suggestions we made in a previous issue, and which
you can access online. (At NCRegister.com, click on “Resources” then “Jesse
Tree Craft Swap.”)
If you think about it, those are the three elements that
make up the Register’s contribution to your family. We bring you the news with
a Catholic perspective, we present you the examples of apostles for the
Catholic faith, and, as a kind of “significant sideline,” we also offer aids
that can directly help improve your faith life.
