A Perspective You Won't Find Elsewhere

Secular publications rarely publish anything about the Catholic Church unless it's bad news. And even if it isn't bad, they seldom get the story right: they don't understand what the Church is, or they misunderstand what she does. At the Catholic Herald, we strive to get the story right. Our combination of local, national and international news gives a broad perspective of the Church's life.

Faithful Reminders

Need to brush up on your religious knowledge? We rotate four local priests who provide weekly commentary on the Gospel readings. In addition, Arlington Bishop Paul S. Loverde provides regular spiritual insight and opportunity for reflection with a weekly homily and regular colum. Fr. Tad Pacholczyk writes a monthly column on bioethical issues currently impacting society.
