News in the Archdiocese of Denver1

The Office of Communications seeks to advance the overall message of the Archbishop of Denver and to serve as an information outlet for communicating the mission of the Church of Northern Colorado to broader audiences.

The Communications Office also seeks to help fellow Catholic offices and agencies, spread the word about their events, activities, educational/awareness campaigns or initiatives to their communities. We have three general ways in which we do this:

• Our Web site www.archden.org
• Our newspapers Denver Catholic Register (DCR) and El Pueblo Catolico (EPC)
• Press releases to the secular media, including The Denver Post and Rocky Mountain News
