Added Blessing

A NOTE FROM OUR PUBLISHER

God has blessed me many times in my life with new ways in which to serve him and his Church, whether through marriage and fatherhood or through my service to EWTN as chairman and CEO and to the Register as publisher.

Pope Francis has given me another opportunity by asking me to serve as one of the consulters to the Vatican’s Secretariat for Communication, which he established in 2015.

I am humbled by the Holy Father’s confidence. The Vatican has had a long history of standing at the forefront of using the latest technology to spread the Gospel — and I have learned much from Mother Angelica, a pioneer in her own right.

I look forward to continuing my role with EWTN while also sharing what I have learned and working together with an international body of communications experts, with the larger aim of aiding the Church in propagating the faith.

Please pray for me as I take on this added role.

God bless you!

The Autocracy Virus

A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER: Autocratic tendencies run deep in Latin American politics. But the same kinds of power grabs seem to be spreading like a virus to all corners of the globe, including here in the United States.

Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Next week, the Bishops of the United States will meet in Orlando and consecrate America to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This week on Register Radio we are joined by Bishop Kevin Rhoades to explain the importance of the consecration and how we can all take part and then Register senior writer Zelda Caldwell tells us about the remarkable phenomenon of diocesan priests living in community.
