There is a rich common-good tradition in Catholic thought. By identifying what “common good” means, we can understand how the Sacrament of the Eucharist is a common good, and what that means for the life of the Church and our happiness.

Dr. John Froula, associate professor of Dogmatic Theology at The Saint Paul Seminary, will explain how in the Spring 2023 Archbishop Ireland Memorial Library Lecture.
