Past:
This section presents the history of the Albany Diocese, "as told by" the bishops who led the Catholics of the region (the articles were actually written by James Breig, editor, using material assembled by Sally Light for her history of the Diocese.
Present:
This section salutes Bishop Howard J. Hubbard on the occasion of his 20th anniversary as head of the Diocese and includes a lengthy interview with him about the status of the Church here.
Future:
This section profiles six parishes that are pointing the way toward the new millennium by being examples of what Bishop Hubbard is calling for as the century ends and another begins.
We hope this keepsake issue is a treasure for Catholics as a reminder of their past, a celebration of their present and a summons into their future.
