Description
Cardinal Seán O'Malley, who has served as a key Vatican diplomat on Cuban relations, tells us how the ongoing Cuban energy crisis is impacting the day-to-day lives of Cubans and how the Catholic Church is responding in the island nation. Paola Flynn sits down with the Diocese of Brooklyn's Bishop Emeritus Octavio Cisneros, a Cuban-born bishop, to hear about the canonization cause behind Fr. Félix Varela, a Cuban priest who served in New York for almost 30 years, ministering to Irish immigrants in the early part of the 19th century. As we near the historic beatification of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, we are joined by Word on Fire's Bishop Robert Barron to hear his reflections on the Catholic media trailblazer and how he's personally inspired to carry on Sheen's work of evangelization. Fr. Antonio Cristóbal Fones, SJ, the International Director of the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network, gives us the behind-the-scenes for how Pope Leo XIV discerns his monthly prayer intention — and how we can all pray with Our Holy Father. Mark Irons tours "Old St. Mary's" in Philadelphia, the site of the first public religious commemoration of the Declaration of Independence and where President George Washington himself once worshipped.
