Fr. Bob Rooney, BA ’88, was ordained to the Catholic priesthood on May 23 by Archbishop Shawn McKnight, BA ’90.
A former attorney, Fr. Bob reminds us that God’s call unfolds in His time — and that a UDallas education continues to bear fruit in lives of faithful service.

President Jonathan Sanford, PhD, joined Sissel Anderson on the @FWdiocese's weekly podcast, Lights, Catholics, Action, to talk about what it means to form the whole person rather than just train workers.

Today is Pentecost Sunday, the birthday of the Church. The same Holy Spirit who descended upon the Apostles is alive and at work in the world today.

Come, Holy Spirit!

For UD alumnus Fr. Mike Johns, questions about freedom, truth and human dignity were never just classroom exercises. Now a priest of the Diocese of Little Rock, he makes the case for authentic religious liberty in Public Discourse.
