Los Angeles Archbishop speaks on Immigration

Last updated on: June 11, 2025 at 8:05 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Archbishop José Gómez is not a stranger to speaking on immigration issues.  As Archbishop of Los Angeles while the press shows protests and riots in the city, he has issued the statement below. I echo the sentiments of the Archbishop, that Congress has failed to pass immigration reform for forty years.  This system, “leads so many to seek to cross our borders illegally.”   I feel like a broken record explaining to people who yell, “let them get in line!... Read more

Unexpected Origin of Jubilee Years

Last updated on: June 9, 2025 at 8:45 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

0 Comments

The 2025 worldwide Jubilee, Pilgrims of Hope, was called by Pope Francis following the tradition established by Pope Boniface VIII in the year 1300 when he called the first Jubilee Year in the Catholic Church.  Most current explanations I have read about the celebration of a Catholic Jubilee cite the Jewish practice of a Jubilee as described in the Book of Leviticus, but Pope Boniface is rarely (if ever) mentioned.  I traveled to Rome at the opening of the Jubilee... Read more

El Misterio de la Creación, la naturaleza y la gracia

Last updated on: May 25, 2025 at 8:09 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

No es necesario saber cómo funciona algo para darse uno cuenta de que sí funciona. Crecí en el campo y observé de primera mano el trabajo de la naturaleza: las semillas sembradas en tierra adecuada con suficiente agua, resultan en vida nueva. No es necesario comprender cómo se desenvuelve este proceso para saber que la tierra efectivamente genera vida nueva. De niño me maravillaba la grandeza de la vida al ver nacer un ternero, y también cuando me hallaba en... Read more

Cardinal Sturla on Pope’s first trip to Latin America

Last updated on: May 22, 2025 at 9:06 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Yesterday, Cardinal Daniel Sturla Berhouet, SDB of Montevideo, Uruguay gave an interview to CARVE radio in Montevideo to discuss his general experiences of the conclave which elected Pope Leo XIV.  Uruguay is the least Catholic country of Latin America, with only 38% of the population identifying as such, and 52% affirming they have no religion (2023).  “What was going through your mind as you walked to the conclave?” asked the reporter. “I would always wonder what it would be like... Read more

Missionary Pope from the peripheries

Last updated on: May 20, 2025 at 6:44 am   By Father Pablo Migone

0 Comments

Pope Leo XIV welcomed yesterday in the Apostolic Palace a delegation from Chiclayo, the city where he served as bishop for nine years.  Included in the delegation was Mr. Jose Pérez Flores, regional governor of Lambayeque, the province where Chiclayo is located.  Pérez Flores extended an invitation to the Holy Father to visit Chiclayo. Pope Francis often spoke of his dream of a missionary Church that goes out to the peripheries or margins of society.  This desire now takes a... Read more

The Mystery of Creation, nature and grace

Last updated on: May 16, 2025 at 1:28 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

It is not necessary to know how something works, to understand that it works.  I grew up in the countryside, and observed first-hand the work of nature: seeds sown in the right soil with enough water bring forth new life from the earth.  It is not necessary to grasp how this comes about to know that the earth generates life.  As a child, I would stand in awe at the newness of life when watching a calf be born, as... Read more

Pope Addresses Journalists

The past several days have been very exciting with our newly elected Pope all over the news, both Catholic and secular.  I have seen excellent moments where our faith is shared and explained especially in secular media sources.  It’s appropriate that so early in his Papacy, Leo XIV held an audience with journalists from all over the world.  He said to them, “Your service, with the words you use and the style you adopt, is crucial. As you know, communication... Read more

Pope’s friend: Our Pope, what he comes to know, he loves

Last updated on: May 10, 2025 at 9:36 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

I just listened to two interviews performed in Peru to Father Pablo Larrán, an Augustinian priest working in Northern Peru and personal friend of Pope Leo XIV. I was struck by his words, “The new Pope is a person who loves, who feels deeply.  Our Pope, what he comes to know, he loves.  I am happy because I have received a Pope who is an Augustinian and a friend.” Father Larrán quickly summarized the Pope’s ministry in Peru: “In 1985,... Read more
