A message in support of Religious Freedom Week from the Most Rev. Edward Malesic, bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland.
Religious freedom remains one of our country’s most precious rights. It goes beyond the freedom to worship. It allows us to take our faith outside of the walls of our churches with the freedom to serve others in God's love in ministries like education, adoption and foster care, health care and migration and refugee services. This is why I am asking the faithful of the diocese to pray with maximum determination for the preservation of religious freedom beginning with the feast day of Sts. Thomas More and John Fisher, and including the Nativity of St. John the Baptist. The weeklong commemoration from June 22-29 ends with the feast of Sts. Peter and Paul.
