The Catacomb Diaries

Today's podcast is a recording from a zoom session I did with my parish's youth community where I talked about Mary and took a deeper dive into why she is so important. Though I've learnt a lot over the past few months, there is so much more to this topic and I cannot wait to learn more. In the meantime, here's a brief presentation of what I've learnt so far and I hope it will help you on your faith journey as well.

Here are 4 things that helped me in my faith journey to more deeply understand the Eucharist. I hope they will help you as well.
