On this weeks podcast we take our listeners back to WYD 2023 in Lisbon, Portugal in August 2023 and to one of the daily catechesis which was given by Bishop Robert Barron - "Take time to pray". The event, hosted by the U.S. bishops’ conference, culminated in a eucharistic procession and holy hour, which prompted a profound silence among a crowd that had been singing, dancing, cheering, and chanting “U.S.A.” just an hour before. An estimated more than 10,000 teens, young adults, and their leaders, as well as 30-some U.S. bishops, adored the Eucharist to silence, worship music, and meditations in Lisbon’s Parque da Quinta das Conchas e dos Lilases Aug. 2.
You can get full report at TCWR - ‘Preach the real Christ,’ Bishop Barron tells thousands of U.S. youth at WYD.
We have our regular run through the liturgical odds and ends for the coming week and of course a reflection on the Sunday gospel which is Mark's account of the calling of the disciples (Mark 1:14-20).
