8/18/25 - Fr. Paul Born – Attending a ”Mehndi” Party?

Fr. Paul Born currently serves as the Parochial Vicar at Mary, Queen of Martyrs Parish in Plymouth, Massachusetts. In Today's Show: Do you recommend praying traditional prayers like the Pater Noster or Hail Mary in Latin for personal devotion? I've heard the joke that priests run on coffee and the Holy Spirit. Do you think that's true? What's your go-to beverage before morning Mass? How should I respond to a friend who wants to pursue medical assistance in dying (assisted suicide)? I am in the process of retuning to the church. Can I attend a mission trip with loose Protestant themes? Can a Catholic attend a Hindu "Mehndi" party?
