A Catholic Response to Tragedy

Probably by now we have all heard about the tragic death of Declan Sullivan at Notre Dame a couple weeks ago. We here at Catholics on Call share in the grief of the Sullivan and Notre Dame families, and we invite everyone to pray for healing. The night after Declan's death a Mass was celebrated at Sacred Heart Basilica and the crowd was so huge that it flowed across the campus into the student center.

The Pope’s Visit to the United States
Next week Pope Benedict XVI will make his first official visit to the United States. He will gather with bishops and other Catholics in Washington, where he will also meet with President Bush. Then he will travel to New York City, where he will address the United Nations and a number of other groups. He will celebrate the Eucharist at the new stadium of the Washington Nationals as well as in storied Yankee Stadium. It will be a very full and swift few days for Benedict and for all who follow his visit.
