The owners of every NFL team decided almost unanimously to ban kneeling during the National Anthem. Hear why Bishop Burbidge thinks this is a prudent decision.
Five men were ordained as transitional deacons on Saturday. Bishop Burbidge talks about what he remembers most about this phase of his journey to the priesthood.
Bishop Burbidge also has a message for our three soon-to-be priests as they prepare for their ordination this Saturday. All are invited to the Holy Hour on the eve of Priestly Ordinations to pray for these three men, as well as to their first Masses.
Lastly, in light of Father’s Day in two weekends, Bishop Burbidge has a special message for fathers.
Bishop Burbidge answers these questions from the faithful:
