Carolina Catholic and the George Floyd case

For our first July show, we will first hear from former police officer, Adam Davis, about his book, Behind the Badge: 365 Daily Devotions for Law Enforcement. Adam left a career in law enforcement in 2015 to begin a new career as an author and motivational speaker especially to assist those in law enforcement with their faith given the high rate of officers killed each year on the job and the rate of suicide among police officers. Adam addresses the tragedy of the George Floyd case and what we as a nation must do to ensure safety for everyone. In addition, my husband, Dr. Mario Paparozzi, a criminologist, will talk about the impact of this case and the reforms that are needed.

This show will air on Wilmington Catholic Radio's four stations, 91.7 FM, 93.1 FM, and 103.1 FM in Wilmington and 100.7 FM in Southport on the first two weekends of July, Saturdays at 11 a.m. and Sundays at 6 p.m. 

'Women Made New' is now on Saturdays

Wilmington Catholic Radio is now airing the new EWTN show Women Made New on Saturdays at noon.  Hosted by Chrystalina Everet, each week Evert and a guest will talk about how to stop running from the past by learning to face it, own it, and heal it! Listeners will be able to hear Evert’s in-depth talks with influential Catholic wives, mothers, speakers, and authors, such as Kimberly Hahn, Lisa Cotter, Cameron Fradd, Lisa Brenninkmeyer, and many more. The women will talk candidly about the hard topics with which every woman struggles. As Evert says, it’s never too late for a woman to start over and to heal the wounds from the past.

Carolina Catholic prays with the saints every day of the year

For our second June show, our guest is Dawn Beutner, author of Saints: Becoming an Image of Christ Every Day of the Year, who is a Catholic wife and mother as well as a former atheist who worked as an astronautical engineer. When she came into the Catholic Church, she read many saints' biographies falling in love with the saints, and she set out to do a book of daily biographies of the saints to help us with our prayer lives, as studying the saints helped her deepen her prayer life. In this show, we learn about many saints and how they impacted Dawn's faith.

This show will air on Wilmington Catholic Radio's four stations, 91.7 FM, 93.1 FM, and 103.1 FM in Wilmington and 100.7 FM in Southport on the second two weekends of June, Saturdays at 11 a.m. and Sundays at 6 p.m. 

Virtual Rosary Prayer Group

Wilmington has it's own Rosary Across America now and it was launched on Thursday, March 19, and will continue every Thursday evening at 8:00 "until all our Churches can reopen" in the words of the leader, Sabina Newman, a parishioner at Saint Mark.

According to Sabina,

I want to reach out to you in this stressful time for our nation and Church.  When I saw our Church doors locked, my heart sank. Even though the doors are closed, HE is truly with us.  I always remember what is written in the Bible, Matthew 18:20 - "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

I am proposing a virtual prayer/rosary group that can grow.  We want Jesus to know we hear Him and support Him.  Also, as His children, we need His help. Our Blessed Mother will guide us through her beautiful rosary.
