• Description:

  Live from the campus of Ave Maria University in Ave Maria, FL

  First Topic – Liturgical Music / Praise & Worship / Music in the Life of the Church

  Martin Doman has always loved music. His home as a child was inundated with music, mainly the listening variety. His parents came to deep relationship with Jesus through the Catholic Charismatic Renewal and praise and worship was part of his life at a pretty young age. Thirty years later he has now recorded 6 CDs and is director of music ministry at Ave Maria University. We talk about liturgical music, praise and worship, music in the life of the Church and we listen to some of his music.

  Second Topic – St. Andre Bissette Canonized Sunday

  Pope Benedict XVI presided this Sunday at the canonization of six new saints for the universal Church, including the first native Canadian male, St. André Bessette, a Holy Cross brother who gained international renown for holiness during his 40 years as the porter of the Notre Dame College in Montreal. 5,000 pilgrims came from Canada in the official delegation to recognize the beloved “brother Andre,” who had a reputation for healing as well as sound spiritual counsel, founded the magnificent Oratory of St. Joseph in Montreal. We talk to Holy Cross Fr. Kevin Grove about what this canonization means to him and the order.
