Catholic Women Now

There are many misunderstandings of the Catholic Church teaching on where the soul is after suicide. Fr. Chris Alar  saw suicide first hand through the loss of his grandmother and two good friends to suicide. In his own grief to grapple answers, he discovered the teaching of the Catholic Church to be hopefilled for his grandmother's and friend's souls.  After Suicide is not a preventative book but is meant to help those coping with the after life of their loved one.  Fr. Chris's message of hope and mercy has helped many. He shares 3 principals to cope with the loss. Listen in to this important topic that is affecting many today.

Throughout the Bible God showed his people his protection. In the Old Testament, God revealed to Moses to instruct the Israelites to  place  the blood of the lamb over the doorpost so the Angel of death would pass over and spare anyone in the home from death.  In this episode,  we share sacramentals that provide protection for those who have the faith of a child.  And we have a natural remedy given to seer and locutionist Luz de Maria de Bonilla, who suffers from the stigmata. Her messages have received the Imprimatur of the Catholic Church since 2009.

While  in seminary, Fr. Mitchell, LC,  encountered a season of doubt. In God's divine mystery, a copy of St. Faustina's diary was left at his door. Thus began a path for Fr. Mitchell path that has lead to continually discovering the richness of Divine Mercy. 

An apostle of Mercy is more than carrying an image of the Divine Mercy or reciting the chaplet of Divine  Mercy. The Divine Mercy is a spirituality  - a way of life and a gift for the Church. Fr. Michael shares how we can live this in our lives. What does Divine Mercy say to a Catholic woman today?

Fr. Michael is a national director of Mission Youth. This is an international mission organization to Latin America. He received degrees in Philosophy and Theology from the Pontifical University Regina Apostolorum, graduating summa cum laude in 2011. Besides traveling and overseeing church projects in Latin America, he also regularly leads retreats and parish missions,  is a spiritual director and author of I Saw His Face and two other forthcoming books. He resides in Michigan.

Find his book:here

Joining us today Jennifer Ristine, consecrated lay woman with Regnum Christi.  Jennifer is the author of the book, Mary Magdalene: Insights from Ancient Magdala.  

When Jennifer's mother passed away,  Mary Magdalene began to befriend Jennifer.  Surrendering fleeting securities, Jennifer looked to Mary Magdalene as a woman who could help her purify her heart. Mary Magdalene had traveled this path in her own life.  As Jennifer prayed for Mary Magdalene's intercessory aid,  she began to understand deeper redemptive love. The big surprise and gift came when Jennifer was assigned to a mission in Magdala.  In those four years, the heart of Mary Magdalene became even more evident.  Jennifer helps us, the modern woman, to learn from Mary Magdalene's journey as it is ours, too.

And~  listen for the surprising Easter tradition associated with Mary Magdalene that is celebrated in the Eastern church. We are thinking of making our Easter tradition, too. 

Here is the link to Jennifer's book:
