Michael Deegan,Superintendent of Schools for the Archdiocese of New York, received the 2023 Lifetime Commitment to Catholic Education Award. The honor is bestowed by the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA). The ceremony took place last week in Dallas, Texas.

We spoke with Superintendent Deegan today in his office at the Archdiocese. And with his hallmark humility, he told us he accepted the award in the name of the thousands of people he has worked with in his 50 years in Catholic education.

At one of New York's oldest churches, the archbishop wove together the Holy Father's words, a childhood story of St. John Paul II, and the meaning of Mother's Day.
