12/17/24 - Fr. Joseph Dalimata, FSSP - Understanding the Wild Stories of the Saints!

Fr. Joseph Dalimata, FSSP serves as Parochial Vicar at Immaculate Conception Church in El Paso, Texas. He was ordained in May of 2021. In Today's Show How literally are we to understand the hagiographies of the Saints? If I live in one diocese for work but then go to another diocese for vacation, which Holy Days of Obligation do I have to observe? I recently made a vow to God, foolishly. Is it possible to dismiss/commute a vow? Can a wedding mass held on a weekday be counted as a daily mass? I've had many spiritual experiences, and a friend thinks I should get a spiritual director. How can I do this? How should we apply this verse from Corinthians: "Let women keep silence in the churches..." I haven't practiced the Faith since I was a child. What are the exact steps I need to take to make confession again? My children's godfather was found doing immoral things, is there a way to cancel him being a godfather? Why was John the Baptist surprised that Jesus was the Son of God? Is it okay if a pastor does confessions instead of a priest? Any suggestions for Christmas gifts that priests would appreciate?
