  • Holy Father’s Intentions for April

    General Intention: That the Church may offer new generations, through the believable proclamation of the Gospel, ever-new reasons of life and hope.

    The Paulist Fathers, the order I used to work with in my days at the UCC, is rolling out a Lenten YouTube reflection series… looks like it could be fun. UPDATED: Apparently, they took the trailer offline once the series started. I really liked that trailer.
