JD Vance Details Catholic Return Ahead of June 16 Book Release

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 14

Summary

  • June 16 frames JD Vance’s new book “Communion,” in which the vice president says Catholicism ultimately felt “like home” after what he called a long loss and return of faith.
  • Vance said marriage and fatherhood pulled him away from chasing prestige—schools, money and jobs—and back toward questions of virtue, family and God.
  • Catholic tradition became the draw, he said, because the church offered a stable foundation rooted in practices and beliefs stretching back thousands of years.
  • Usha Vance, though not raised Christian, encouraged his conversion journey and attends church with him; Vance described their household as a Hindu wife, a Catholic father and 2 Catholic children.
