"When we think of the Fourth of July, I would venture to say that our Catholic faith does not immediately pop into our minds. After all, it is a secular holiday. Although at daily Masses throughout our country we offer prayers for the United States, the day is given over to parades, cookouts, and fireworks. Yet on this day, we may wish to reflect on how our faith has contributed to the nation we are today."
In
a recent
commentary, Father Steven Shott, OSFS, reflected on some of the ways Catholics have contributed to the nation's growth.
