1000 Sisters on the Frontlines receive $1,000
CHICAGO Just shy of the one-year mark from when the program was launched, the
Sisters on the Frontlines initiative, an alliance formed to respond to the immediate needs of communities impacted by COVID-19, has been fully funded. Catholic Extension made the announcement, indicating attainment of an ambitious goal that granted 1,000 Catholic sisters $1,000 each to help an individual or family suffering the adverse effects of the pandemic. More than $1,000,000 has been granted in total since the program’s inception.
In return for the $1,000 grant, each sister was asked to report back to the Frontlines alliance on how she used the funds to care for those in need. As a result, Catholic Extension received hundreds of videos, stories, letters and photos, which have been archived and shared on Catholic Extension’s website and social media channels.

As Joseph R. Biden Jr., the second Catholic president in U.S. history, continues to fill out his administration, a number of important executive and ambassadorial nominees will go before the Senate. One position of particular interest for American Catholics is the U.S. ambassadorship to the Holy See.
Since 1984, the United States and the Holy See have maintained formal diplomatic relations, building on a fraught history of relations going back to the Washington administration. Mr. Biden, who keeps a photo of himself and Pope Francis on a table behind his desk in the Oval Office, is likely to consider several factors in his decision, including what priorities Mr. Biden would seek to emphasize with the Holy See, the expertise and familiarity with the church of the candidates and what message Mr. Biden wants to send to
