The Patrick Madrid Show: August 26, 2025 - Hour 3

Patrick responds to questions that cut to the heart of Catholic life, moving from a supervisor’s Sunday work dilemma to a mother’s heartbreak over her son abandoning Mass for love. He weaves together listener stories, personal reflections, and Church teaching with both gentle encouragement and striking candor. As he celebrates the arrival of his new grandson and listens to tales of faith, Patrick offers practical advice and genuine warmth, drawing out the truth in every exchange.   Steven (email) – Is it okay to ask people to work on Sunday? (02:03) Mary - My son is dating someone who is not Catholic. I feel the girlfriend is lying to him. Is there anything I can do? (10:07) Rosa - I called a year ago about an annulment. I want to thank you for your guidance. It helped me a lot. (23:17) Caesar - In Catholic Christian burials, we should keep the body together and not cremated and spread in the ocean. Saints, however, have relics all over the world. Can you help me understand this? (29:07) Victor – Our priest said that not all Catholics will be going to Heaven. He also said that we might meet Buddhist monks in heaven. How is this possible? (38:56)
