STATION XV (podcast)
http://station15.co.nz/
Episode 175 – Persecution, Pelosi, Palliation, Prayer (June 16, 2022)
The episode is a real mixture of joy and sadness, as we traverse the globe for this month's stories. Starting close to home, there's news of the appointment of a Bishop of Christchurch, but in Africa, the news of another attack on a Catholic church and dozens of worshippers is maddening and sickening. In the US, Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone's decision to ban House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from receiving communion has created a stir, while back Down Under there are concerns people won't get the health care they need because of fears about euthanasia. Maybe we just need to pray about it and have a stiff drink — like the Venezuelan man in our light story. Enjoy the show, and keep up with your own prayers for our world.
