February's Teaching Moment
Some of the prescribed works for a plenary indulgence include the following: Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for at least one half hour; devoutly assisting at the Veneration of the Cross during the Good Friday liturgy and kissing the cross; devoutly participating in the solemn Eucharistic rite at the close of a Eucharistic Congress or for those who spend at least three (3) whole days in the spiritual exercises of a retreat; receiving Holy Communion for the first time or assisting at a First Communion; devoutly assisting at the First Mass of a Newly Ordained Priest; praying the Stations of the Cross; and praying the Marian Rosary in a church, a public oratory, a family group, religious community, or pious association. Next month, we will focus on the numerous partial indulgences available to us by the grace of Jesus Christ.
Carolina Catholic reports from the 2023 March for Life in DC
For our first show in February, Tara Lewis and I report from the 50th annual March for Life in DC which was also the first march since the Supreme Court of the United States overturned Roe v. Wade; the case which legalized the right to abortion in all 50 states back in 1973. In this show, we first speak with the Most Reverend Michael F. Burbidge, Chairman of the USCCB's Committee on Pro-Life Activities, on what we can do as Catholics now that the fight for the right to life of the unborn has been returned to the states. We also chat with two post-abortive women about their work in educating people about why they both regret their abortions, and we chat with several organizations that work to educate and help women and girls in crisis pregnancies across the USA.
This show will air on Wilmington Catholic Radio's three stations, 91.7 FM, 93.1 FM, and 103.1 FM on Saturdays at 11 am and Sundays at 6 pm on the first and second weekends of February.

Carolina Catholic learns about Bella Dodd and her journey from Communism to Catholicism
For our second January show, Tara Lewis and I chat with Mary A. Nicholas, MD, co-author with Dr. Paul Kengor, about their book, The Devil and Bella Dodd: One Woman's Struggle Against Communism and Her Redemption. Dodd was a communist and a master infiltrator of the American educational system bringing communist propaganda into our schools. She courageously defected from the Communist Party, and thankfully, she was helped by Bishop Fulton Sheen who brought her from the scourge of communism to the beauty of Catholicism. After her conversion, she dedicated her life to warning the world about the evils of communism even testifying before Congress on the infiltration of America by communists.
