I confess to being a news junkie. I follow international, national and local news. I’m interested in political and religious events, in weather reports and happenings in the sports world. I watch the news in the morning during breakfast, at noon during lunch, and at night during dinner. I sleep with the radio on, usually listening to talk radio, and if I wake during the night, I check my phone to see what’s happening in the world. It’s a very bad habit, I know, and probably not good for the body, mind or soul.

After Bishop Russell J. McVinney died in August 1971, Msgr. Daniel P. Reilly, chancellor of the diocese, served as administrator for the next four months while the process of selecting a new bishop was underway. In December, the Vatican announced the selection of Msgr. Louis E. Gelineau, vicar general
of the Diocese of Burlington, Vermont, to serve as the sixth Bishop of Providence.

Pope asks Mary, Queen of Peace, to end war in Ukraine and everywhere |
|
|
|
ROME (CNS) — After setting white flowers at a statue of Mary, Queen of Peace, Pope Francis prayed the rosary and asked Mary to intercede to bring peace to Ukraine and to every place in the world torn by violent conflict.
Pope Francis usually ends the month of May, traditionally dedicated to Mary, by leading the recitation of the rosary at the Vatican. But given Russia’s ongoing war on Ukraine, he chose to go to Rome’s Basilica of St. Mary Major and the statue Pope Benedict XV had placed there in 1918 as a sign of people’s prayers that Mary would intercede to end World War I.
