David Hahn makes the case for Christopher Columbus as a courageous explorer and faithful Catholic, after President Trump honoured him in this year's Columbus Day proclamation. He then looks at Pope Leo's appointment of Archbishop Vittorio Viola as Archpriest of St Peter's Basilica, and what it could mean for the future of the Dicastery for Divine Worship. Finally, he reports on Adoremus, the National Eucharistic Congress that brought thousands of Catholics onto the streets of London, and on FOCUS naming Jonathan Reyes as its next CEO.
