Flowing from the mission of the Archdiocese of Louisville, the mission of the Archdiocesan Communications Office is to communicate the good news of Jesus Christ to the people of Central Kentucky. As one of the largest ministries of the Communications Office, The Record carries out this mission through a professionally produced newspaper and website that provides inspiration, information, and education to the people in the 24-counties of the Archdiocese of Louisville. The Record, which was established in 1879, seeks to equip Catholics with the tools they need to make good decisions, to grow in their faith, and to carry out their baptismal call to reach out to others in Christ’s name and renew the face of the earth.
TheRecordNewspaper.org is updated daily with local, national and world news of interest to the Catholic Church.
The print edition is published each Thursday by the Archdiocese of Louisville except the first Thursday of the month and the weeks of Christmas and New Years. The digital edition of The Record is available in print weeks by 8 a.m. Thursday. On that website, you can also search archives dating to the beginning of 2008.
