The Literary Catholic

A program where we unpack life-changing stories from centuries of Catholic literature. 

The Literary Catholic is a collaboration of the Diocese of Bridgeport, Connecticut, the Sacred Heart University Center for Catholic Studies, and the Guild of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus.

The Guild is committed to fostering spiritual growth and community through the Sacred Arts. Our mission is to connect individuals to their faith, ignite their imagination, and support their journey toward a deeper relationship with God.

Sacred Heart University, located in Fairfield, CT, is a contemporary Catholic university rooted in the liberal arts and the Catholic intellectual tradition. Sacred Heart's Center for Catholic Studies fosters an understanding of Catholicism's intellectual tradition and its contributions to human knowledge and culture. The center aims to deepen students' appreciation of their faith and its relevance to contemporary issues through interdisciplinary programs and initiatives.
