In his video today, Cardinal Dolan recounts the history of Halloween.

Also known as All Hallows Eve, today was traditionally celebrated as the day before All Saints Day.

Pope Leo XIV took time to celebrate the 250th anniversary of his home country after a morning visit to Lampedusa.

Pope's visit echoes Francis' 2013 pilgrimage as pontiff mourns migrants lost at sea.

As the nation marks 250 years, historians trace the founders' complicated legacy on faith and freedom.
