In this new episode we are joined by Stephanie McNamara, niece of Irish Columban Missionary priest, Fr. Thomas Cusack who, along with seven other Irish Columban missionary priests, was martyred for his faith in Korea in 1950.  Their cause for canonization is currently pending.    Listen to this fascinating story of an Irish hero who gave his life for love of God and love of neighbor.

PRAYER FOR THE COLUMBAN PRIEST MARTYRS:
God, in the midst of ideological conflict and the wounds of division, when all the rivers and mountains were engulfed in the gunfire of war, we thank you for sending good shepherds, faithful witnesses to show us that love is greater than hate.

In Your Mercy, bless Your faithful servants and through their intercession hear our prayers.

St. Columban, pray for us.  Amen.
