Dearest members of the St. John Henry Newman Association of America,
As your directors of the SJHNAA board we are delighted by the prospects of our upcoming annual conference August 3-5, 2023 at The Catholic University of America where we will honor our beloved Fr. John Ford who contributed so much to this association, Newman’s legacy and the students of CUA. Dr. Bernadette Waterman Ward has shown her networking doggedness by securing talented speakers; Drs, Delio, Gruber, Morgan, Hendrain, Long, Wyman, Roberts, Lisowski, Conely, Kulema, Ward, McKenna and Frs. Velez and Catina, a noteworthy keynote speaker in Dr. Michael Pakuluk, an Ordinariate mass (complete with a Philadelphia choir) at The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. Dr. Waterman Ward also arranged an extraordinarily gracious agreement with The Catholic University of America securing affordable conference costs. Registration rates will be reasonable for all attendees. The Catholic University of America, in hosting The St. John Henry Newman Association of America in Washington, D.C. (a transportation hub, full of history, and a robust Catholic community), promises us an attractive venue perfect for worship, honoring Fr. Ford, growing in our patron, and once again fostering our cherished fellowship. We can’t wait to see many of your beautiful faces this summer.
Warmest regards,
Ron Snyder
