Five Things To Remember On Oct. 11


1. Pope Francis has named Father Andrew Cozzens, 45, associate professor at St. Paul Seminary School of Divinity in St. Paul, Minnesota, as auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis.

2. Another U.S. Bishop - this time Archbishop William E. Lori - met with Pope Francis this week. Archbishop Lori is chairman of the USCCB's Ad Hoc Committee for Religious Liberty. Earlier this week, the president and vice president of the USCCB respectively, Cardinal Timothy Dolan and Archbishop Joseph Kurtz, met with the Pope.

3. World Mision Sunday is October 20. Learn about this day set aside each year for Catholics worldwide to recommit themselves to the Church's missionary activity through prayer and sacrifice.

4. October is the month of the Holy Rosary. Why do Catholics pray the rosary and how does it happen? You can learn on USCCB.org.

5. God loves you.
