NCR announced today that Justin McLellan will join the publication as its new Vatican correspondent, effective July 14. A seasoned journalist known for his multilingual fluency and multimedia storytelling, McLellan steps into the role at a pivotal time for both the Catholic Church and NCR.

The world seems more fractured than at any point in recent memory since World War II. Yet amid this turmoil, the Vatican is determined to make its voice heard — not simply in prayer, but in active, engaged diplomacy.

Great article via @ncronline.bsky.social on how the US bishops' refugee program, now a JD Vance target, resettled a family..and contributed to the American Dream. #JDVance #Catholic #refugees www.ncronline.org/news/how-us-...

My latest for NCR — a deep dive into the USSCB refugee resettlement program, that since 1975 has changed more than a million lives of many politically persecuted refugees all around the world. What will happen with the new federal administration cutting funds?

Will this be just the first of many clashes between the VP and the bishops? During the Biden administration, the bishops’ federal revenue for refugee assistance increased eight-fold to $123 million in 2022 from $15 million in 2019, for over $450 million in grants since 2021. My latest on NCR:

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi criticized Pope Francis' recently renewed pact with China. Her comments were part of a wide-ranging interview with the National Catholic Reporter in her Capitol Hill office on Dec. 6.

A while back, I started asking experts to help me understand why it was so difficult for ppl in prison and jail to sue for proper medical care. Why, for example, had one state system gotten away with delaying treatment for Hep C? www.themarshallproject.org/2024/12/04/k...

Some stories are more difficult, and in some cases more painful, to write. This is definitely one of them. Between 1951 and 1979, the Vatican took about 3,700 children away from their unwed Italian mothers, and gave them for adoption to American couples. 1/
