Prefect for the Vatican Dicastery for Communication, Paolo Ruffini has this week said the paradox of today is that “we are hyperconnected and also alone”. The problem arises, he highlighted, “when there is no longer communication, but only connection.”

Vicar for Effective Communication, the Very Rev Fr Peter Whitely VG has this week encouraged those who are unable to attend Mass to tune in to Mass For You at Home, a ministry of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference, in partnership with the Diocese of Wollongong.
