The pandemic of 2020 has disrupted the sacraments and public worship, scattered communities, and put local churches into new, sometimes strained, relationships with civil authorities. The Catholic Church has also been a significant actor in the crisis, offering relief services and spiritual care on a massive scale. What does all this mean for the worldwide Church, now and in the years to come?

The Harvard Catholic Forum and the Lumen Christi Institute welcome John L. Allen Jr., renowned author and founder of Crux, to discuss.  The event's co-sponsors are the Saint Benedict Institute, the Collegium Institute, the Institute for Faith and Culture, the Nova Forum, and St. Paul's University Catholic Center.
