AROUND THE ARCHDIOCESE


December 19 & 26, 2023

Ep 33: A thrill of Hope for the weary world

Fr. John and Jen sit down together again (finally!) for one last conversation of hope before Christmas.

Fr. John gives us a surefire way to be renewed in hope and joy this Christmas by bringing our repentant hearts to the manger this year.

Jen and Fr. John read from some of the season's carols, which give us theology for discipleship once we get past the well-known first verse.

Ep 32: Leading hope-filled lives

Jen speaks with Fr. Gino de la Rama Vocations Director for the Archdiocese of Newark, and Fr. Patrick Seo, Associate Vocations Director, about how to keep the door open for the young people in your life to consider where God is calling them to holiness whether it be to marriage, clergy or religious life.

Gaudete in Domino semper!

Rejoice in the Lord always!
