As we journey together as a Family of Parishes, let us find inspiration in the story of the disciples on the road to Emmaus. Just as Jesus joined them in their uncertainty, we too can reach out to those around us. This week, consider connecting with someone who may feel weary or disconnected, offering them kindness and support. Let us walk in faith, uplift one another, and embrace the hope that Christ brings into our lives. This Sunday, Matt Ruttle, the Director of Love in Action, shares his reflection. Read the full reflection here.
Letter from our Archbishop
May 8, 2025
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
Habemus papam!
We have a pope. Through prayerful discernment and with the assistance of the Holy Spirit, the Cardinals of our Church have chosen our new shepherd. This is a unifying moment in the life of the Church, reminding us of the Good Shepherd's eternal care for His flock. Christ, who is yesterday, today, and forever, now places the care of this flock in the hands of Pope Leo XIV.
With great joy and gratitude, I join with all of you throughout the Archdiocese of Cincinnati in praying for our new Holy Father. May the Lord grant him wisdom, courage, and strength in carrying out his sacred ministry.
In Christ,
Most Reverend Robert G. Casey
Archbishop of Cincinnati
