Fr. Joe is a newly ordained priest of the diocese of Providence, Rhode Island. I was so blessed to overlap with Joe in Rome for two years and can say that he is one of the deepest, most spiritual thinkers that I know. His humility exudes through every word he says and every minute of his ministry. Grateful to God for priests like Fr. Brodeur!

Rather than simply revisiting past memories, we take time to talk about what life was like for three friends who were just starting their high school careers when everything got shut down. Rather than being an annoyance or hindrance, all three of these young women were able to find God in this difficult time through different and unique ways. Tune in to hear the seeds that God was planting in their lives and the fruits that have been born as a result of their faith.

"But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ." -Philippians 3:20 This week we are joined by a friend of OLF, John Brahier, who serves as the Associate Superintendent of Catholic Culture for the Archdiocese of Detroit. Within his role, John is able to offer ample insight into the state of all 79 of the Catholic schools in the archdiocese as well as the future forward for promoting a solid culture at each of these schools in hopes of bringing the entire group together. As a father of three (soon to be four!), John himself has personal interest in paving a bright future for all of the youth that we serve.
