The New Zealand Catholic Bishops Conference has launched CathNews New Zealand, a new ministry designed to share the news, life and impact of the Church in the country.
Earlier this month, the NZCBC reached an agreement with the Society of Mary to take on the CathNews New Zealand name. Church Resources, a subsidiary of the Society of Mary, had managed CathNews New Zealand since 2011.
The New Zealand publication is not affiliated with the Australian-based CathNews, which is a publication of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference.
CathNews New Zealand’s primary focus will be sharing news about the Church, its people and its ministries. It will also explore issues of importance for New Zealand society and culture.
CathNews New Zealand editor Gavin Abraham said providing a Catholic perspective on those issues will help form and inform readers.
“The Church, inspired by the Gospel, has an important voice in our society. Helping share that voice and amplify it within the Catholic community and beyond will be central to our mission at CathNews,” he said.
Content will come from a range of sources, including mainstream media, Catholic, Christian and other faith-based media, as well as original content from the Bishops Conference.
CathNews New Zealand will be published twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays. To subscribe, visit https://cathnewsnz.com/signup/
