Added as a speaker to Portsmouth Abbey’s conference on Catholicism and the American Experience , being held June 7th to 9th, is Robert P. George, who will be speaking on “Religious Liberty and the Human Good.” Other speakers are George Weigel, wholl be talking on Catholics in an Unfamiliar America,” the Bishop of Providence, Thomas Tobin, Roger Kimball, the editor of The New Criterion , former New York Times religion editor Peter Steinfels, and Orthodox writer Jim Forest, a friend and comrade of Dorothy Days. Friends who have gone to previous conferences commend it.
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
