Father McSweeney recommends this article from the Wall Street Journal, New Immigrants, Same Church, by Carine Hajjar.  
It is about the continual evolution of Saint Brigit-Saint Emeric Parish in New York, founded by Irish and Hungarian immigrants and now serving it's mostly Spanish congregation.  A heart warming article for this Christmas season.

We have launched The Good Newsroom, a new digital newsroom where you can stay up to date on everything happening in the Church in New York. The Catholic faithful have such a positive impact – the work we do for people, families, and generations of believers benefits our society and our communities in a variety of ways. The Good Newsroom is a website where we will publish videos, articles, opinion pieces, and photos on a daily basis to tell the story of our faith, our actions, and our good deeds. I hope you will log on to see interviews with key church leaders, educators, and parishioners. You’ll learn fascinating new details about the important role we play in the lives of the diverse mosaic of Catholics who make up the Archdiocese of New York. Please join me in staying connected with the Catholic community of New York attheGoodNewsroom.org. Faithfully in Christ, Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan
