Catholic trustees: they exist but do they understand why?

Catholic school board trustees have a fiduciary duty to oversee the care of children whose parents entrust them to the publicly funded Catholic education system. It is a challenging job.

It is their duty under the Law. The very same duty espoused in Catholic values that support faith formation.

Why Pakistan opted out of Prez Biden’s Summit for Democracy?

As China and Bangladesh were not invited to the US President Joe Biden’s Summit for Democracy, Pakistan did not join being invited.

This summit is being held for the first time on 8-10 December, with countries participating virtually.
