🔥“Only our bodies were sent into exile. Our souls were never subjugated.”

- Rabbi Sholom DovBer of Lubavitch, quoted by his son, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak, upon being sent to exile by the Soviet regime in 1927

In this continuing series on the origins of Catholicism in the 50 states, the story of New England begins in a region that was, from the start, among the least welcoming places in early America for Catholics.

Taken together, the Catholic story of New England is one of endurance and gradual transformation. From the early missionary encounters with Native peoples along rivers and lakes, through centuries of exclusion, suspicion and legal restriction, Catholic life survived largely at the margins. What began as a scattered and often hidden faith was reshaped in the 19th and early 20th centuries by immigration and industrialization as parishes, schools and charitable works took root across the region.

Today, Catholicism is woven deeply into New England’s religious and cultural fabric — a long way from the days when Mass was forbidden, bishops arrived in their new diocese in disguise and Catholics struggled simply to be counted.

Today, Patriarch Theophilos III and Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa arrived in Gaza on a pastoral visit, bringing prayers, solidarity, and hope to a people enduring immense suffering.

Their presence is a reminder that Gaza is not forgotten, and that faith continues to stand alongside those facing loss, displacement, genocide, and uncertainty. As church leaders from Jerusalem, they carry a message of compassion, dignity, and hope to Gaza’s Christian community and to all who are suffering.

🙏 Pope Leo XIV and Patriarch Aram I pray the Lord’s Prayer in Latin during the General Audience

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

During his Wednesday General Audience, Pope Leo XIV reflects on Vatican II's Dogmatic Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, 'Sacrosanctum Concilium,' underscoring that "the liturgy sustains the faithful" and that every Eucharistic Celebration becomes "a true epiphany of the Church in prayer."

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I invite all to pray to the Lord that the visit of His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of the Armenian Apostolic Church of the Holy See of Cilicia, may constitute a further step on the path towards full unity. Let us also pray for #peace in Lebanon and the Middle East, once again torn apart by violence and war. #ChristianUnity

What was Vatican II really about?

More than 60 years later, many still misunderstand its vision and purpose. That’s why the Diocese of Providence is launching VAT2&U — a year-long journey to rediscover the beauty, wisdom, and enduring significance of the Second Vatican Council.
