Marilyn - There are people who are on welfare and women who need to be on it don't want to be. Most would rather have a stable family. Dylan - How can I help bring young Catholics back to the Church? (11:35) Patrick (email) – Why has the divorced rate risen so rapidly? (19:55) Mary Ann - We have a thriving young parish: I think it has a lot to do with being clear about the faith, and the priests are really good about being able to distribute communion themselves. I think the focus on the sacred liturgy is really good. Cam - How many days is Lent exactly? Is it really 40 days?
