Featured Saint of the Day: St. Oliver Plunkett
Featured Local Guest: Father Ken Halbur, Associate Pastor at St. Francis
Featured National Guest: Shawn Carney, For Coalition for Life
Featured Catholic News: Michael Voris, Real Catholic TV




Father Ken Halbur, Associate Pastor St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, joined Bill and Rich in studio as their first guest of the morning. The newly Ordained Father shared his story about his journey through discernment and seminary. Although he was having a very successful life Father Halbur wasn't happy. He then began to start praying again and the idea of priesthood came into his mind. He then continued on with his work but the idea of priesthood never went away. After losing his job he realized that he was being called to seminary. One thing that was obvious was that people never know when God is going to call them. Before the interview was over Father Halbur blessed the station and it's listeners.




Shawn Carney, for Coalition for Life and Co- Founder for 40 days for Life, was the second guest of the day. Shawn discussed that people have to go to where the problem is to end abortion. Coalition for Life observes peaceful vigils for the end of abortion, and believes praying and talking with people who are considering abortion. He also shared success stories about women who were going to get an abortion but at the last second with the help of coalition for life changed their minds and choose to give birth to the child. He also talked about 40 days for Life which is a program that observes peaceful vigils, fasting, and prayer.
