The GDgvn Podcast

My friend Chelo Gonzalez shares with us that the realization that her entire life is a pilgrimage and how that point of view has changed her and helped her to realize that her life is a GDgvn journey! From her initial "pilgrimage" to Philadelphia to see the pope, a global immersion trip in Spain, her volunteer work at St. Vincent de Paul, taking care of her sick mother, and her current mission, Chelo has approached her entire life from the perspective that it is one long pilgrimage full of life lessons, opportunities for growth, and a chance to deepen her relationship with Jesus Christ!

Fr. Michael Perucho (aka, Rooch or Fr Rooch) of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles has been one of the greatest, if not the greatest, GDgvn influence in my life & I'm sure many others!  I have known Rooch for over half my life and he has been a big source of religious guidance & perspective, inspiration, and grounding.  It was only fitting that he be the first guest of the GDgvn podcast!  Please listen in as we discuss his early life prior to priesthood, his calling & decision to become a priest, and his current life as a priest!
