Religious Freedom Week 2019: Strength in Hope

Religious Freedom Week 2019
In the pilgrimage of this life, hidden with Christ in God and free from enslavement to wealth, they aspire to those riches which remain forever and generously dedicate themselves wholly to the advancement of the kingdom of God and to the reform and improvement of the temporal order in a Christian spirit. Among the trials of this life they find strength in hope, convinced that "the sufferings of the present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come that will be revealed in us" (Rom. 8:18).
                              -Apostolicam actuositatem, 4

Join the USCCB and Catholics across America as they pray, reflect, and take action on religious liberty in this country and abroad. The USCCB website has lots of materials you can share with your parish, on social media, and more.
