The Diocese of Scranton is in the 5th year of a unique fundraiser that throws parish priests into a friendly diocesan wide competition featuring their culinary skills, with all donations supporting Catholic Social Services in the Diocese.

The 3rd annual National Eucharistic Pilgrimage will begin in Florida in May, and go through what were the original 13 colonies in celebration of America's 250th birthday. 9 pilgrims will journey with Jesus along the route. Two join The Katie McGrady Show to share about their coming experience.

Happy St. Paddy's Day, from the Katie McGrady Show

The Daughters of St. Paul are making your Lenten almsgiving easy. Just buy a book for a nun, and they'll send it to the Salesian Sisters for you!

Gossip, Lies, Slander, Hot Takes...we've seen (and done) them all, and Fr. Gregory Pine wants to do something about it. So, he wrote a book to train our tongues for better, Godly, speech.

March 12, 2020 was the last somewhat "normal" day before everything shut down on Friday, the 13th. The height of Covid-19 was coming, and what we remember about those early days of March are worth reminiscing about. This is a clip from the 2 hours of callers on the morning broadcast of The Katie McGrady Show on SiriusXM, The Catholic Channel.

It's hard to stay focused during the Lenten season, but Colleen Pressprich has created a remarkable daily resource to help families pray with Scripture and have great discussions throughout the (long) 40 days.

A combo Scripture/Saint of the Day reflection from Wednesday, March 11, on The Katie McGrady Show on SiriusXM's The Catholic Channel.

Catholic Relief Services invites you to give alms with intention this Lent, and participate in Operation Rice Bowl.
