The annual SEEK conference held by FOCUS inspires college students and those of college age who do not attend college, to pursue and deepen their relationship with God. The conference gets its name from John 1:38 in which Jesus asks his disciples, “What do you seek?”

The year 2025 was a significant anniversary year for the Diocese of Worcester as it celebrated 75 years since it was established by Pope Pius XII in 1950. The diocese celebrated its 75 years with a Mass and an awards banquet among other activities including a multicultural Marian procession. With the anniversary in mind, The Catholic Free Press recalled significant anniversaries throughout the year for parishes and other groups in the diocese and published a commemorative book about the diocese’s history.
