Good morning! On today’s show, Matt Swaim and Anna Mitchell welcome Fr. Wade Menezes to discuss his book for Catholic dads ahead of Father’s Day. Other guests include Fr. Boniface Hicks with more thoughts on personal prayer from the saints, and Kris McGregor to reflect on a selection from the Office of Readings. Plus news, weather, sports, and more… ***** St. John Henry Newman’s Fragrance Prayer Dear Jesus, help us to spread your fragrance everywhere we go. Flood our souls with your spirit and life. Penetrate and possess our whole being, so utterly, that our lives may only be a radiance of yours. Shine through us, and be so in us, that every soul we come in contact with may feel your presence in our soul. Let them look up and see no longer us but only Jesus! Stay with us, and then we shall begin to shine as you shine; so to shine as to be a light to others. The light, O Jesus will be all from you. None of it will be ours; it will be you shining on others through us. Let us thus praise you in the way that you love best by shining on those around us. Let us preach you with preaching: not by words but by our example, by the catching force, by sympathetic influence of what we do, the evident fullness of the love our hearts bear to you. Amen. ***** Fr. Wade Menezes, author of Stand Firm, Be Strong Danny Flynn is online at catholicliberaleducation.com. Full list of guestsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
