Our next episode from the archives comes from Msgr Ray East, and is a fan favorite of the podcast. Originally hosted by Matt Reichert, former host of Ministry Monday, we’re glad to bring you this throwback episode today. Please note that this is an archived recording from a previous NPM Convention, and for this reason, the audio quality has some bumps along the way. But Msgr. Ray’s message more than makes up for it, and we hope you’ll enjoy.
#110: Maintaining Unity in Good Times and In Bad (with Bishop Mark Seitz) (REPLAY)
For the next four weeks, we in Ministry Monday will be taking a brief hiatus from new episodes, as we will be participating in the 2020 Virtual Convention. But don’t worry! We’ve combed through our archives and have found some great Ministry Monday episodes for you to listen to.
Our first episode from the archives comes from Bishop Mark Seitz. Bishop Seitz is the bishop of El Paso, Texas, as well as NPM’s episcopal moderator. This episode originally aired on February 11, 2019. For this reason, Bishop Seitz discusses the still-raw wounds from the crisis facing the Catholic Church in light of the sex abuse scandals which rocked our country in August 2018. However, in a way, his discussion of maintaining unity in good times and bad still resonates today. Originally hosted by Matt Reichert, former host of Ministry Monday, we’re glad to bring you this throwback episode today.
#109: Changes for the Association (with Steve Petrunak and Berta Sabrio)
Today on the podcast I speak to Steve Petrunak and Berta Sabrio. Steve is the President of the National Association of Pastoral Musicians, and Berta Sabrio is the Vice President of Programming and Planning for NPM. Steve, Berta and I sat down and reflected on the ways NPM has changed in the last 3 months, and how this is only a starting point for the association. So sit back, grab a cup of coffee and sit with us as we reflect on the next steps for NPM.
