Eric Meyer returns to Morning Light with a unique new series that looks at how our Catholic faith permeates our culture in ways you may be unaware of! Today's topic is “REMOTE CATHOLIC CHURCHES” - whether it's our Idaho priests traveling 100s of miles each weekend or celebrating Mass in Antarctica, the Great Commission is reaching all corners of the globe! 

     Morning Light presents Fr. Dominique, prior of the Fraternity of Verbum Spei, offering his "Thoughts on Theology." In Episode 2, Father talks about "The Gift of Faith."

     During our weekly "Passionately Pro-Life" segment, Morning Light talks with Heather Murphy, Development Director at the Couple to Couple League. Heather talks about the mission of Couple to Couple League and why they decided to create "Natural Plan" - an innovative new form of NFP.  Learn more at: https://learnnfp.org/natural-plan 

     Morning Light wraps up its 4-part series during National Human Trafficking Awareness & Prevention Month with Taylor Cook.  She is part of the Anti-Trafficking Task Force with the Nampa Family Justice Center.  Find out why the approach of a multi-disciplinary team of agencies is important in the realm of anti-trafficking work.  We hope this series has helped our listeners realize that human trafficking exists right here in our backyard and needs to be taken more seriously.

     Assistant Editor, Emily Woodham, fills in for Dcn. Scott Pearhill in walking Morning Light through the latest issue of the Idaho Catholic Register hot off the press.
