By Enid Hinton


There are numerous web pages created in the name of the Catholic Church. However, not all are worth your time. After studying thousands of pages in different languages and by people of diverse ranks, here are the top conservative catholic blogs that will satisfy your daily need for information, details and news.

Father Z: What does the Prayer Really Say? This is a platform for commentaries and liturgical nuances. The priest focuses on news from church hierarchy and comments on emerging national, regional and global issues. He has a fun side where he posts about his bird feeder and includes photos. The blog pays a lot of attention to catechism and the liturgy.

Dolan: The Gospel in the Digital Age- His Eminence Cardinal Dolan is the Prince of the Church in NYC and a very active user of online platforms. He is a great source of news about USCCB and offers a preview of his liturgical itinerary. He gives a world view and clarity to emerging issues from his position as a prince of the church.
