Father Anthony with Tony and Cristina gather to discuss the goings on, and people in the Parish. We begin the show with Spiritual “warfare” as Father Anthony’s mic was just not functioning. Father relocated to a different mic and prayed while we worked on technical difficulties-finally resolving towards end of prayer. Amen!! After break we regroup and start anew, Father discusses a few articles that have been written after the assassination of Charlie Kirk. One article in particular addresses a noticeable increase in church attendance. Another addresses the urgent need to reject relativism-Father was just speaking to this last week Friday, how timely he is. The group goes ahead and chats regarding these topics, always coming back to God is needed, He is the center and prayer is key!

Lauretta Froelick welcomes Joyce Duriga, editor of Chicago Catholic and author of two books. Lauretta speaks about her recent retreat and how she evangelized by being rooted in love and how her Sabbath rest restored her. Joyce talks about employing angels into our lives for our spiritual health. They discuss how our destiny is to be as God created us to be. The discussion looks at the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage whose theme was “One Nation Under God.” Lauretta and Joyce highlight the effort to stop the State of Illinois from forcing healthcare workers to commit abortions which is a gross violation of conscience.
