On November 14, I had just come home from a long day at work. We had an in-service that afternoon and my head was pounding with a headache. Before making dinner, I checked my phone: no messages. In the five minutes it took to warm up my dinner and sit down, a voicemail had come through. It was an urgent message from family telling me that there was an emergency. Nothing could have prepared me for what came next.

More on Humanae Vitae
A little-appreciated fact of the Pontificate of Pope Paul VI is that from 1968 onward, his Wednesday General Audiences were published in English translation. During the course of my studies, I came across this fact and recently had occasion to look at some of those Audiences, especially after my recent article on Medjugorje and Humanae Vitae.
