Peter Gallagher from Gloucester Catholic High School about the roles they play at the respective schools, the challenges they face and even some of the more interesting questions they get on a daily basis.

“I am ready to die for my Lord, that in my blood the Church may obtain liberty and peace.” Saint Thomas Becket, 12th century Chancellor of England and Archbishop of Canterbury, held much power in life, but after his martyrdom in his own Cathedral, he ascended to even greater glory. In this month’s Talking Saints, hosts Laurie and Pete trade stories of his life and friendship, and later conflict, with King Henry II, and his staunch faith that challenges us to ask ourselves: who will we serve, God, or the things of this Earth? Saint Thomas Becket, pray for us!

For our last podcast of 2023, we welcome in beloved and award-winning Talking Saints podcast co-host Laurie Power to discuss Advent and her newest vocation, consecrated virgin. She has now entered into a new status within the church by becoming consecrated into one of the oldest orders of the Catholic faith, which took place on November 21 at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception where Bishop Dennis Sullivan celebrated the Rite of Consecration to a Life of Virginity for a Woman Living in the World. Laurie chats with Jen Mauro and Mike Walsh abut her discernment path, how this vocation differs from that of a woman religious, and what it is expected of her.

The ability to collaborate with colleagues in the same field is important, especially in Catholic school enrollment. Sharing ideas, plans, and social media campaigns, provides everyone the opportunity to see what can work best for different audiences. This week, hosts Marianela Nunez and Michael Bress spoke with colleague and fellow school enrollment professional, Kristin Moore, Director of Marketing and Enrollment for the Office of Catholic Schools for the Archdiocese of Seattle. The group discusses Kristin’s career path, starting with her career as a Catholic school teacher, then to her role as a school-level advancement director and how she ended up working with over 70 schools at the Diocesan level. Moore talks about her philosophy on working with principals, teachers, advancement directors and, of course, parents. The group rounds out the conversations highlighting Moore’s work on creating materials for not only the schools in the Archdiocese of Seattle, but also other Dioceses around the country and why it is important for Catholic education to have a consistent, strong brand message everywhere.

“Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential.” On today's Talking Saints, hosts Laurie and Pete unpack the life of “Good Pope John.” Having been elected at the age of 76, many thought he would be a transitional pope, but John XXIII's short, yet impactful papacy, proves that we can be God's instruments at any age.
