Here's what's been happening across the country this week:
Vancouver has a new seminary. Six men from the Neocatechumenal Way are the first seminarians preparing for the priesthood at Vancouver's new Redemptoris Mater seminary.
In St. Paul, Alberta a priest was shot and killed by a man who was later involved in a shootout with police. Archbishop Richard Smith of Edmonton asks for prayers after the incident, and the diocese of St. Paul has funeral details.
In Winnipeg, retired Archbishop Sylvain Lavoie met with Christian communication and news professionals to talk about transmitting the beauty of faith through their work, and why 12 step adddiction programs don't work without God.
And Toronto's Catholic Register is in the Holy Land to cover next week's papal visit.
