Dream Big! Join us for Episode 20 of “How to Speak Catholic,” as we interview Father Zawadi of the Crosier Fathers (http://www.crosier.org). Father Zawadi is a missionary priest from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and he is in the United States asking for help in spreading the Joy of the Gospel through his work, and that of his missionary brothers, in Africa, to help bring education and opportunity to those that have none. Hear about Faraha, a young lady who aspires to a PhD in Economics to help her community out of poverty. Hear about how much your donation, great or small, can have a great impact in the lives of others. And most importantly, help us pray for our Catholic brothers and sisters in the Congo, as they face daily struggles and triumphs in their search for the Truth and the joy that comes from that!
Please contact Father Zawadi at jeanmariezawadi@crosier.org, via telephone at 1-320-532-3103, via cell phone at 1-602-321-1798, or via snail mail at:

Welcome to "How to Speak Catholic," your podcasting source for the Joy of the Gospel through the Catholic Church. Our goal is to share the joy of being Catholic, whether you're Catholic, or just curious about what the Catholic Church teaches, we're here to help.
This episode is the second of 2 talks from the Spirituality Day of the Rural North Central Deanery of the Archdiocese of Omaha. We touch on a little CS Lewis and take it one step further with a challenge: Is the Eucharist what the Church says it is (the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord, Jesus Christ)? And if not, then we're faced with only 2 other possibilities - 1) we Catholics are cannibals who believe in human sacrifice, or 2) we Catholics are a bunch of backwards, superstitious, uneducated, gullible, ignorant idolaters who worship a piece of bread, thinking it's got some type of magical powers. If you don't believe everything that the Church teaches about the Eucharist when you go up to receive communion, then you must fall into one of the other two categories - there are no two ways about it. The question, then, is which one are you?

This episode is the first of 2 talks from the Spirituality Day of the Rural North Central Deanery of the Archdiocese of Omaha. I was asked to tell my conversion story, though I don't really think of it as a conversion as much as I think of it as a rediscovery of the love that God has for me in his church. Find out what Mr. Miyagi has to do with Catholicism and what called this Filipino Nebraskan back home into the loving arms of Christ's bride.

CAVEAT: We cover some adult themes in this episode - nothing explicit or graphic - but it may raise questions among your children that you may or may not be ready to address with them yet, as it pertains to marriage. If you have younger children, please listen to this without them before deciding whether or not it is appropriate for them at their age.
Exodus - Journey toward Apocalypse, Part 3 of 3. This is now available on the podcast, as well as our new YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgEdy5XmRP-sFB2OABpX9gA.

We tackle some of the most pressing questions that Catholics have today - How should I dress for church? How do I keep from being bored in mass? If this stuff is so important, why haven't I ever heard it before? Join us and find out!

Join us for Episode 14 of the podcast. In this episode, we find out that the Book of Exodus is more than just "The Ten Commandments" and freedom from slavery. It's a template for the coming of Holy Week and the Messiah - grab your Bible and join us to (re)discover the Old Testament roots of the New Testament Covenant! This is an audio presentation of the first of the 3-part series conducted at the Sacred Heart Church in Norfolk, NE, on the 10th of March 2017.
Also, please join us for the next episode, or better yet, the next talk (if you can make it) on the 24th of March 2017, when we tackle some of the questions that, surprisingly, have their answers in Exodus - What's a tabernacle? Why do we bow/stand/sit when we do during mass? Bring your Bible and join us for Part II of The Book of Exodus, as we explore the Old Testament origins of the Mass and the structure of the church (the building, as well as the organization).
