Catholic Not Fascist

Join Nicole and Meg from the pews as we review voter discernment using the Dorthea Project's voter guide and learn more about the process of discernment when voting.  The Dorthea Project is a non-partisan organization and the Roman Catholic Church does not tell anyone who or what legislation to vote on, but you are invited to bring your catholic morals with you into the voting booth.  When it comes to Nicole and Meg, their opinions are their own.  As Catholics we are called to participate in society, which includes VOTING!  Trust that Nicole and I are praying hard during this election that we bring in a more loving and caring administration to build a more peaceful and hopeful nation.

Join Nicole, Meg, & Shannon Vavich from the pews as Shannon shares her not only her tragic far-right Catholic military trad wife story, but how she was saved by the grace of God.  She now is sharing that grace with other women who have lived similar stories.  We are endlessly grateful to Shannon for blessing us with her very limited time.
