The Morning Blend

Join Franciscan Friar Father Dan Pattee, TOR as we enter the season of Ordinary Time and explore how baptism plays a significant role in our ongoing conversion as a follower of Jesus Christ.  By looking at conversion through the example of Saint Francis and Saint Paul the Apostle, Father Dan discusses how the Holy Spirit works through our baptism and forms us in the school of justice and love.  The Catholic Church celebrates the feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul the Apostle on January 25.
