Last year we had 22 parishes participate in some way to honor our Blessed Mother through Eucharistic Adoration and public recitation of the Rosary in the Archdiocese.

Ep 41: September - Back to Seminary?

A conversation with James McElroy


Jen and Fr. John team up to speak to James McElroy who began his studies at the Immaculate Conception Seminary at Seton Hall University this past week. James is a 24 year old "normal guy" who has spent a full year of discernment before entering the major seminary. He gives us all a new perspective for tackling the school year ahead.
