Today’s topics: The Pauline Family
Summary of today’s show: At the advent of the 1st World War 100 years ago, Bl. James Alberione founded a religious congregation of priests and brothers that became the first foundation of the Pauline Family. Fr. Mike Harrington, Fr. Ed Riley, Sr. Margaret Obrovac, FSP, and Sr. Lucille Van Hoogemoed, PDDM, join Scot Landry to talk about how that first community grew into the ten branches of the Pauline Family today of five religious congregations, including Sr. Margaret’s Daughters of St. Paul and Sr. Lucille’s Sister Disciples of the Divine Master; four lay institutes, including Fr. Mike and Fr. Ed’s Institute of Jesus Priest; and association of lay cooperators. Fr. Mike and Fr. Ed are the first US diocesan priests to become members of the Institute of Jesus Priest.
