As we celebrate February as Catholic Press Month, I would like to comment on the continued importance of Catholic media in today’s world.
With a plethora of communication tools today (printed materials, computers, cell phones, electronic books), we seem to be bombarded by information. How do we sort it all out? How do we separate truth from fiction? What is important for us to know and what is just garbage?
ST. FRANCIS — His résumé might give the impression that Milwaukee’s 11th archbishop is driven: captain of his high school tennis team, basketball coach, degrees in civil and Church law, 24 years in the Army Reserve, moral theology professor, parish priest, pastor, and bishop. But he doesn’t view it that way.
“I don’t see myself as driven; I see myself as responding to needs. I’ve been the proverbial ‘If you want something done, ask a busy man.’ A busy man or woman will find time to get it accomplished,” Archbishop-designate Jerome E. Listecki told the Milwaukee Catholic Herald Saturday, Nov. 14, the day his appointment to Milwaukee was announced.
