Yesterday, it was announced by the Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) that Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap. will be the principal celebrant of the Funeral Mass for Mother Mary Angelica, P.C.P.A., the network’s founder.

Mother Angelica was one of the great American Catholics of the past half-century, a woman of extraordinary faith, intelligence, energy and determination.

Every Easter we come again to the moments that define us as a believing people. The Last Supper, the Crucifixion, the Resurrection — these sacramental celebrations, far more than Christmas or any other feast of the Christian calendar, set us apart from every other religious tradition in the world.

En cada Pascua llegamos otra vez a los momentos que nos definen como pueblo creyente. La Última Cena, la Crucifixión, la Resurrección —estas celebraciones sacramentales, mucho más que la Navidad o cualquier otra festividad del calendario cristiano, nos diferencian de las demás tradiciones religiosas en el mundo.

Americans woke up this morning to the tragic news of yet another terror attack—this time in Belgium. Each life lost was a precious gift from God that has been torn from all those whom it touched.

The Archdiocese of Philadelphia’s Office of Catholic Education (OCE), Business Leadership Organized for Catholic Schools (BLOCS), and Faith in the Future Foundation (FIF) are proud to jointly announce the CAPS 2016 event.
The acronym stands for “Celebrating Academics, Philanthropy, and Service in Philadelphia-area Catholic Schools.”
