Weekly News Roundup September 1, 2022

Our stories this week include: (1) Bishop Robert Barron's interview of Shia LaBeouf, a young Hollywood actor who took on the daunting task of portraying Padre Pio in a forthcoming film and ended up converting to Catholicism (the unexpected bombshell is that the TLM played a key role in his conversion); (2) the next phase of the Synod on Synodality (introduced last week in Rome via a press conference); (3) a new exposé on discrimination against Catholic and conservative educators in a Connecticut elementary school; and (4) the latest from Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò.
