Catholic Messenger Conversations Episode 79 – The Bishop, Basketball and Holy Week

Bishop Dennis Walsh returns as our guest. In this episode, we discuss the NCAA tournament, the bishop’s trip to Cedar Rapids recently to accompany immigrants at check ins with the U.S. Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the events of Holy Week and the jump in the number of new Catholics joining the church both locally and internationally. With recording taking place the day after St. Patrick’s Day, we also cover the legacy of Ireland’s patron saint.
