Cardinal Robert Sarah has urged the faithful to “turn with more intensity, confidence and truth towards God". A previously excommunicated Chinese bishop has led prayers for the people of Italy. Cyrus Habib explains why he's stepping down as Washington's lieutenant governor to join the Jesuits. And a family with 10 children reveal how they plan to spend Sundays with no Masses.
