Light in the city

October 31, 2022
By Yvonne Wenger

On this year’s All Soul’s Day, as we hold the names of Baltimore’s murder victims in our prayers and our hearts, I humbly ask: What more can we do together?

Hills, and life, roll on

March 10, 2021
By Michael Reeb
Special to the Catholic Review
Filed Under: Amen, Commentary

I have long been of the belief that good-hearted souls turn to service later in life when they are financially secure and can afford to put something back into the community. For me, it happened a bit differently.

The good and the ugly

February 3, 2021
By Sherita Thomas
Special to the Catholic Review
Filed Under: Amen, Black Catholic Ministry, Commentary, Racial Justice

I am hopeful that the racism initiative will assist with ending the pattern of disregard seen too often displayed for Black lives. I hope this effort is a journey for the Archdiocese of Baltimore instead of just a project.

By George P. Matysek Jr.
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Amen, Amen Matysek Commentary, Christmas, Commentary, Feature, Marriage & Family Life, Parenting

As we watch our children grow up right before our eyes, we are reminded that time is limited and precious.
