As Isaias Salgado stood amongst a crowd making their way into the new University Catholic Center at the University of Texas at Dallas on Aug. 28, he couldn’t help but smile.
“I really can’t put into words how amazing all this is,” said Salgado, a senior neuroscience major and member of the Newman Catholic Ministry, a Catholic student organization at UTD. “It’s amazing. It’s such a blessing.”

24 Aug: Three generations of service to the Church

A decision made by one man nearly 40 years ago altered the lives of his family in such a way that the Catholic Church gained three generations of servants to the faith because of his choice.
Father James R. Sharp, 86, retired priest at St. Michael the Archangel of Garland, started his service in the clergy with the Episcopal faith while married to his college sweetheart, the late Beverly Kay. The couple had three children together. In 1980, Pope John Paul II approved a pastoral provision allowing non-Catholic priests to be ordained in the Catholic Church.
