A Time for Fortitude: Stronger Priests, Stronger Parishes, Stronger Church is Bishop da Cunha's vision for the future of our Diocese centered on strengthening our priests. This three-year plan (2025-2027) focuses our local Church on moving forward in our relationship with Christ by actively working toward bringing to our priests more stability, hope, holiness, and wellness. Strengthening our priests will, in turn, strengthen all parishes and ministries in holiness and vitality.

Bishop da Cunha reflects on the grace-filled visit of the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage to the Diocese of Fall River, the enduring tradition of the Fishermen's Mass and Blessing of the Fleet in Provincetown, and the consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus as our nation celebrates its 250th anniversary. He invites the faithful to renew their Eucharistic faith, give thanks for God's many blessings, and continue witnessing to Christ with hope and generosity.
