I'm excited to share that as of July 1, I am now Vatican Correspondent for America Magazine! I'll be moving to Rome in summer 2026 with my family to be an on-the-ground reporting team with Gerard O'Connell, who is now our Senior Vatican Correspondent. So excited for this next chapter ❤️🇮🇹

I'm on Jesuitical this week talking about #Conclave open.spotify.com/episode/2iuZ...

I've been asked a few times whether Pope Francis skipped the Notre Dame reopening bc of the Olympic opening ceremony brouhaha. I can't say for certain if his Dec. 15 visit to Corsica, also in France, was the reason he said no, but the choice to go to Corsica over Paris this month is telling. (1/4)

My fact-check of #Conclave is up now. Warning: This is all about the spoilers! www.americamagazine.org/arts-culture...

Understanding how trans people ended up going to Pope Francis’ audiences, and meeting with him, requires a pretty solid understanding of his relationship with the spiritual family of Charles de Foucauld. Last year, I reconstructed that untold story for you: contemplativeinthemud.com/2023/09/05/p...

Vatican to consider classifying 'spiritual abuse' as new Catholic crime

Ht to Christopher White at @ncronline.bsky.social - Pope Francis has clarified that the Final Document of the synod “participates in the ordinary magisterium of the Successor of Peter.” Some points 🧵

Vatican confirms: Pope Francis will travel to Corsica Dec. 15 for a nine-hour visit. He'll speak at a conference on popular religiosity, meet churchworkers, celebrate an outdoor Mass & meet with French President Emmanuel Macron.

Pope Francis is set to visit Corsica next month, @joshua-mcelwee.bsky.social reports: www.reuters.com/world/europe...

War is always a defeat. I call again for the madness of violence to end. May we commit to just and lasting peace. Let us pray for the people of Ukraine.

How realistic is ‘Conclave,’ the movie? It tries to showcase the battle for the soul of the church that takes place during a papal election & examines the tension between the demands of faith and the desire for high office. My @cnn.com analysis: www.cnn.com/2024/11/19/e...

Pope Francis to #G20 Summit: “There is a significant paradox in terms of access to food. On the one hand, over 3 billion people lack access to a nutritious diet. On the other hand, almost 2 billion individuals are overweight due to poor nutrition.” press.vatican.va/content/sala...

#PopeFrancis in letter marking 1,000 days since Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine, prays "to God, the only source of life, hope and wisdom, that He may convert hearts and enable them to initiate paths of dialogue, reconciliation and concord.”

Is the sky really bluer over here? Tbd. In the meantime, sign up for a webinar I'm giving tonight with @jamesmartinsj.bsky.social and my Inside the Vatican co-host Gerard O'Connell on Pope Francis' #Synod (You can view the recording afterwards at this link) www.americamagazine.org/community/20...
