November 29, 2018
One of Africa’s largest nations is experiencing a dramatic political shake-up – and the Church appears to be delighted. Catholic leaders in Angola have signalled that they stand fully behind the country’s president, João Lourenço, and the reforms he has launched since taking up office in September 2017. Speaking to Ecclesia, the news agency of
Pope Francis has signalled his support for Cupich’s plan. But will the laity agree?

Brazil’s bishops nervously await Bolsonaro’s first moves
November 29, 2018
Jair Bolsonaro entered office at the end of October, much helped by support from Christian voters. He courted both Catholics and Brazil’s growing number of Evangelicals, styling himself as an upholder of Christian family values, and an opponent of abortion, same-sex marriage and gay adoption.

November 29, 2018
When work has me out of town, I like to drop in on a daily Mass. There are, of course, the spiritual benefits of assisting at the Holy Sacrifice, but I enjoy it as a kind of anthropological exercise as well, enabling me to see how the practice of the Universal Church takes on the
In Italy, the Our Father is being re-translated – and not everyone is convinced
November 29, 2018
The Italian bishops’ conference voted recently to approve a change to the translation of the Our Father used in the official Italian edition of the Roman Missal (Novus Ordo Missae).
