A Word from Cardinal Dolan: Saint Philip Neri

By: Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan

Today Cardinal Dolan talks about Saint Philip Neri whose feast we celebrate today.

He’s often called the second father of the Church of Rome.

In the 16^th Century, he won the Romans back to the faith and one of the major reasons was because he was a man of joy.

The concert for the poor began as the initiative of Pope Francis in 2015, although he did not attend any of the performances.

Opponents gathered at four locations across New York State to resist legislation that would legalize physician-assisted suicide.

Cardinal Dolan considers two questions about St. John the Baptist, an integral figure of the Advent season.
