The May Carolina Catholic show is all about saints. There are two shows this month. The first features a Secular Franciscan, Linda Perunko, who is also an artist and teacher. She talks about her favorite saint, Francis of Assisi, as well as the process of becoming a Secular Franciscan.
The second show focuses on some Italian saints. I chat with two fellow pilgrims to Italy this past year, Diane Harris and Catherine Veres. We chat about Italian saints such as Maria Goretti, Padre Pio, St. Francis, St. Clare, St. Rita of Cascia, and Sts. Benedict and Scholastica from Norcia Italy.
