"From a young age, I was interested in how each president approached faith. Did they practice what they preached? Did their policies broadly reflect Christian teaching? These are the questions I’ve asked myself." Read more of Timothy R. Busch's article in the National Catholic Register ??

The Napa Institute invites the faithful to join in prayer for our Holy Father, Pope Francis, as his health remains critical. On this great Feast of the Chair of St. Peter, we reflect on the sacred role and profound gift of the papacy, as well as the divine authority Christ entrusted to His apostles. Today, as one Church, we unite in prayer for Pope Francis’s health, seeking the intercession of St. Peter the Apostle and Our Lady of Perpetual Help.
