The relationship between bishops, the Church and politicians will be on the agenda for the spring meeting of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, June 15-17, at the Millennium Biltmore, Los Angeles. The USCCB’s Task Force on Catholic Bishops and Politicians will present its report.
The agenda will include discussions on the widely popular new DVD by the Committee on Vocations, “Fishers of Men.” The bishops will discuss extending the annual appeal for the Retirement Fund for Religious, adaptations of the Order of Mass, liturgical translations, and a beginning a draft document on stewardship and teenagers.
Reports on the work of Catholic Relief Services and their Hurricane Task Force will also be presented.
