The Valley Catholic is the official quarterly magazine of the Roman Catholic Diocese of San José in California. The trilingual publication features parallel text in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese, the three most commonly spoken languages in the diocese. Its motto is "The Magazine of the Diocese of San José" (Spanish: La revista de la Diócesis de San José; Vietnamese: Tạp chí của Giáo phận San José).
History
Weeks after the Diocese of San José split from the Archdiocese of San Francisco, The Valley Catholic began publishing as a newspaper in March 1981. The San Francisco archdiocese's newspaper, The Monitor, folded in 1984 partly due to reduced readership in the South Bay.[2] The Valley Catholic originally published 19 times a year, roughly biweekly.[3] In 2021, after a 14-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was relaunched as a magazine.[4]
