- On Thursday, I had the chance to meet and chat briefly with Pope Leo for the first time when he received all of the national directors of The Pontifical Mission Societies. He generously received all of us one-on-one.
- I'm very honored to have been asked by EWTN to be in Rome to give commentary for the funeral of Pope Benedict XVI. On Tuesday and Wednesday, we will host at 4:30 pm Eastern "Remembering Pope Emeritus Benedict" and the funeral at 3:30 am on Thursday morning. Please tune in!
- Yesterday was a breathtaking day bringing the Eucharistic Lord Jesus through lower Manhattan, crossing the Brooklyn Bridge, and continuing the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage in Brooklyn…
- An Appeal to Catholics in New York City about working together to make perpetual Eucharistic adoration a reality. Please read and spread. -
- The team for the rest of the coverage here in Rome. Great to be working with Montse Alvarado and Matthew Bunson.
- Today I had the joy to celebrate in Glasgow the Nuptial Mass of Nicholas Tomaino and Madeleine Kearns, two great young Catholic journalists. To eavesdrop on what they said during the homily (in which they were basically coauthors), click below - go.shr.lc/3wU1F07
- Tonight I had the honor to celebrate a Memorial Mass for Jesse Reno, 29, son of Rusty and Juliana, who died Sept 29 in a car accident. Here's the link to the homily and to Rusty's powerful words of remembrance. @FirstThingsMag

- Cardinal Pell last week on our panel for EWTN. It may have been his last public interview. He said, of Pope Benedict, "I was almost surprised at how sad I was when he [died]. I knew I'd miss him." .... youtu.be/-IylIxMsvnc via @YouTube
- So grateful for the service of the CFRs without whom the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage would never have able to take its first step…
- Some new duties, which I will take up full-time in January after completing my last semester as Catholic chaplain at Columbia University. Please pray for me and for the work of the missions! onefamilyinmission.org/father-roger-j…
- Today I had the privilege to give a keynote 2024 Napa Institute dedicated to What It Means To Be Human. Afterward I was shocked to be awarded the Napa award for apostolic zeal for being a catalyst of the National Eucharistic Procession. Quite a day -
- Replying to @FrRogerLandryI hope that those who have always known me as "Father" will continue to call me by that name, which I've always loved and aspired to live up to as a spiritual father in attempted imitation of the fatherhood of God the Father
