Episode 60 - The United States, per capita, has the world’s largest prison population.  About 2.3 million people are housed in various detention facilities, with another 5 million on probation or parole.  Americans make up around 5 percent of the world’s population, yet house nearly 25 percent of the world’s prisoners.  Punishment should also be coupled with humane treatment and compassion and charity toward those imprisoned.  The Catechism of the Catholic Church lists visiting the imprisoned as a corporal (bodily) work of mercy (2447), echoing the words of Christ as He foretells His praise of the just on the Last Day: “I was … in prison and you visited me.” (Matthew 25:36).  Guest host Thuy Lam joins Fr Danda to discuss his experience with visiting the inmates of the Indiana Women's Prison, located in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Episode 59 - April Lam joins Father Danda in a discussion about sheltering God's children through foster care and adoption as she shares her personal testimony of how God brought her youngest daughter to live with them.  Over 400,000 children are currently in the foster care system nationwide and are in need of love and shelter.  Interested in learning more about becoming a foster parent?  The resources mentioned in this episode are:

Episode 58 - Christ came into this world and served the least in his community. He met them where they were, ministered to them, fed them, and tended to their needs. "Beggars for the Poor" is a ministry through the Indianapolis St. Vincent de Paul Society that directly serves the homeless -- or "street people"-- where they are; in the streets. By meeting them where they are, feeding them a hot meal, providing clothes and toiletries, and having genuine care and concern for each individual, we are ministering to these individuals in the most basic of ways.  In this episode special guest, Jenni Haas, discusses the opportunity to love as Christ loved, serve as Christ served, and pray as Christ taught us.
