Current Issue: Spring 2008 - Click Here
The official voice of the Catholic Church in
the Diocese of Santa Rosa. Its mission is to serve
as a vehicle for the bishop to "speak" with the people
of the Diocese, and for the community of faithful to communicate
with and amongst one another.
The publication appears quarterly, in a 16-page newsletter
format. Its focus is to provide rather on providing
readers with information, ideas and inspiration that can
forward both the growth and development of faith, and their
responsible and active participation in the ministries
and governance of the Church.
Each issue is loosely organized around a central theme,
which often corresponds to a timely event or season of
the liturgical year. The theme is chosen to expand our
understanding and awareness of the various works, teachings
and ministries of the Diocese and the Church as a whole. In
addition to the theme article(s), each issue includes
standard features such as:
- The Bishop's message
- Religious Education
- Catholic Schools
- Youth Ministries
- Parish / clergy updates
- Hispanic news
- Diocesan financial information
- Announcements and events
While newsworthy events cannot be covered in an immediate,
up-to-the-minute fashion, the quarterly newsletter
is committed to publishing appropriate reflections and
commentary on those events, consistent with the teachings
of the Bishop and the Church. These may include articles
submitted by parishioners or others, as well as those drawn
from wider sources.
