Held every three years and sponsored by the Holy See’s Pontifical Council for the Family, the World Meeting of Families is the world’s largest Catholic gathering of families. Each World Meeting of Families has a theme that energizes and enlivens the event while adding great depth of meaning to our understanding of families. 

Catholic Seekers

The Archdiocese of Louisville has created a website — CatholicSeekers.org — for people interested in the Catholic faith. It’s designed for those who have stepped away from the church and those new to the faith. The site features five local Catholics who describe their experiences with the church. The welcome screen explains their purpose: “By sharing the personal experiences of real people, we hope you will find guidance in overcoming obstacles and strengthen your relationship with God.” “There’s five actual stories being told by people who have experienced what we hope people visiting the site might have experienced,” said Sal Della Bella, director of evangelization for the archdiocese. “These are real local people, not actors.” Della Bella said it was important to the archdiocese that the site feature local people and local information.
