Dear brother or sister in Christ, Do you know anyone who could use some help choosing a college? To help families navigate the confusing college search process, I helped The Cardinal Newman Society author a new brochure, “How to Choose a Catholic College.”
How about a teacher, counselor or priest who advises Catholic parents and teens?
For many years, an important part of my priestly ministry has been helping parents and students get a solid Catholic education.
I don’t have to tell you how important it is that young people walk in the Way of Christ during their college years.
Fortunately there are many faithful Catholic colleges that help students discern Christ’s calling for them as they prepare for leadership in the Church and society.
But there are also many Catholic colleges where the opposite may be the case... where the lure of the secular world dominates campus life, and respect for Catholic teaching is too often absent from the classroom.
At the wrong college, students risk losing sight of Christ.
My essay in the brochure was adapted from my article in The NewmanGuide to Choosing a Catholic College, as was the note to parents and students from my friend Father Benedict Groeschel, C.F.R.
I hope that you will help me get this important FREE resource into the hands of as many Catholic families as possible.
The Cardinal Newman Society—which has faithfully worked for the renewal of Catholic higher education for more than 16 years—is offering these brochures for you to distribute at no cost.
If you would like a ten pack of “How to Choose a Catholic College,” you may request them by
Thank you for distributing this simple but effective new resource for Catholic families, and may God bless you and our Holy Mother Church!
Yours in Christ,
Rev. C. John McCloskey, III
P.S. I should add a note of thanks to The Cardinal Newman Society for producing and underwriting the distribution of tens of thousands of these helpful FREE brochures!

Mother Mary said at Fatima: "My Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and the sure way which will lead you to God." St. Thomas Aquinas said: "The things we love tell us who we are!" With that in mind, I will try to post each day something about Our Blessed Lady, items about the Holy Roman Catholic Church, and public domain Catholic books too! I pray you enjoy my ministry! Below are two albums of pictures that I created: 1. Our grand daughter Adrianna. 2. Tears of Mary!
