A Word from Cardinal Dolan: Mary, Mother of the Church

By: Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan
Yesterday, we celebrated Pentecost, the birthday of the Church.
The Church is our family, and every family needs a mother. That’s why Pope Francis declared the day after Pentecost as the feast of Mary, Mother of the Church. Today we celebrate that feast day.
Children from the Vatican-owned pediatric hospital sent the Pope hand-drawn cards and letters, and church leaders around the world also wished the Pope a happy birthday, according to Vatican News.
