St. John Henry Newman to be Named Doctor of the Church
On July 31, the Vatican announced that Pope Leo XIV has decided to bestow one of the Church's highest honors on St. John Henry Newman, who was just recently canonized in 2019. Considered one of the greatest and most influential theologians of the modern era, Newman is also well remembered and venerated here at the Brooklyn Oratory Parishes for having brought the Oratory to England in the nineteenth century and thus to the English-speaking world.
