All Kinds of Catholic – Détails, épisodes et analyse

An outdoor, walking-talking episode! Joanna, who leads Catholic History Walks in London, leads us though some of the history that connects us with ‘the Catholic faith we share with our ancestors.’ In understanding something of our history and being able to talk to others about it, Joanna says that, ‘we may be opening up their hearts and minds to something much larger and more beautiful…that connection all the way through history going right the way back must mean something. And it does.’

Jo Siedlecka is the founder of Independent Catholic News. She shares how she finally returned to her faith after observing the quiet witness of others in different parts of the world, caring for street children and refugees. She says, ‘They were people with a faith. They were motivated by something more than just altruism.’ Jo gives us a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes work of curating a free daily Catholic news website - and the prayers and practices that continue to nourish her faith: knowing prayers in Polish and English, Mass that welcomes dogs as well as children, making space for quiet reflection and joining in the morning and night prayer of the church.

This week’s episode was originally recorded live with an audience at our very first in-person event. Helena shares how she grew up, with Polish heritage in America, married a British man and moved to England with a young family. The world of theatre and particularly drama ministry is huge in Helena’s life. She describes ‘a pivotal moment’ when the Holy Spirit was at work, leading her to bring together young people with and without disabilities in a robot-themed dance performance. Currently working with Radio Maria England, Helena explains other ways in which God has undone her plans, sometimes painfully. She feels He is telling her, ‘You cannot decide everything. You've got to let some of it be mine.’
