What an inspiring moment for our OSV family!

In honor of Pope Leo XIV’s birthday, we collected more than 2 million prayers and works from Catholics around the world in a spiritual bouquet.

This week, our OSV News Editor-in-Chief, Gretchen Crowe, had the privilege of meeting His Holiness in person to present him with a physical copy of that bouquet.

It’s a beautiful reminder that when Catholic publishers, communicators, and ministries unite in faith, meaningful things happen.

This Sunday is Catechetical Sunday 🌿—a time to pray for and thank the catechists who hand on the treasure of our faith.

The theme this year, “Always be ready to give an explanation… for a reason for your hope” (1 Peter 3:15), reminds us that every catechist is a living sign of hope.

At OSV, we’re proud to walk alongside catechists with resources and support that help them keep faith formation fresh, dynamic, and full of life. Whether it’s a heartfelt prayer, a clever lesson idea, or even just a smile shared with a student—catechists show us the joy of the Gospel.

💬 Tag a catechist who has inspired you and let them know how grateful you are!
