Giving Day

Dear Friends:

I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude for your support of our 111th anniversary. Not only did we exceed our goal by raising over $120,000, but we had donors from 47 states and 20 countries around the globe!

Time and again I’m reminded of how lucky we are at America to work on behalf of the most loyal and dedicated people in publishing. Your friendship and support is a grace I carry with me every day.

During these challenging days, you’ve made it possible for us to continue telling the stories that matter most. And our dedicated staff is working harder than ever to provide the news, analysis and spiritual resources you need.

We are committed to living up to the trust you have placed in us.

Thank you for your generosity. You and your loved ones will be in our prayers.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Matt Malone, S.J.

Rev. Matthew F. Malone, S.J.

A Reflection for Tuesday of the Seventh Week in Ordinary Time, by Michael SImone, S.J.

Do Catholic hospitals have to choose between mission and the market?

I would argue for two axioms. First, Christian mission induces migration, and, conversely, migration fulfills Christian mission. Second, there is a reciprocal cause-and-effect relationship between Christian mission and migration.

A marker in Indianapolis describes the history of a 1907 Indiana eugenics law
Of the many things that the history of eugenics should teach modern society, two stand out in this discussion. First, not all questions are good questions. Second, statistics can be warped to tell you pretty much anything you want.
