By David McLoone, LifeSiteNews - Pope Francis appointed Juan Carlos Cruz, an openly homosexual man, to the Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors on Wednesday.

By Jennifer Gregory Miller, Catholic Culture - I’m not ready for Holy Week. I admit it. It’s been a busier Lent than I prefer... All this translates in trying to salvage the final days of Lent and the Triduum, giving it a final push.

By Theresa Civantos Barber, Aleteia - “(The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick) is reserved for those who are seriously ill,” I would have said. “Pregnancy is not an illness. Birth is not a disease. Why on earth would I receive this sacrament before the perfectly natural, normal process of having a baby?”.. Then I had my baby. It was an unexpectedly difficult birth that involved significant risk to both myself and my child.
