2022 Year in Review
Nothing Stands Alone
This 2022 Year in Review provides highlights, updates, and some lessons learned from each program area of the Center for Action and Contemplation (CAC), as well as an overview of our financial and operational stewardship.
The Mendicant
The Mendicant is the CAC’s free quarterly donor newsletter. Learn more about our organization in the latest issue or read select articles online.
The Evolution of the CAC Podcast Network
How do you explain the Christ to a child?” This was the very first question we asked Richard Rohr on the first season of our flagship podcast, Another Name for Every Thing. Packed into that question were hours of reading, pondering, and Paul playing with his kids.

A key publication of CAC Publishing is ONEING—CAC’s spiritual journal, which is read by CAC constituents in fifty-five countries. The journal includes numerous well-known authors and intentionally introduces new voices through its varied themes.
Unveiling the Daily Meditations
In September 2021, we “pulled back the veil” to show readers that Richard Rohr’s Daily Meditations (or “DMs,” as we call them) are a team effort.
