description | The year 2020 will go down in history as the year of COVID-19, even in the realm of the Catholic Church. Among other things, the pandemic led the Pope to forgo all pastoral trips outside of Italy. During the twelve months of that “fateful” year, however, other events that were relevant to the life of the Church did take place. In the following pages, we shall list some of the most important news stories covered by the media. Since there is no other way, the selection is based on this author’s criteria, though it does rely on some objective grounds: the “rivers of ink”, as they used to say, that each of these events unleashed. In other words, we have selected those news events that sparked the most conversation and discussion. |
