Father Anthony with Tony and Cristina gather to discuss the goings on, and people in the Parish. Father greets everyone and poses the question: How do you grow in faith? This leads the trio into discussion over their thoughts on how to grow in faith and the need for silence. This leads to them “just reminiscing”.  After a break, Father leads us in prayer, then switches gears and mentions the polarization being experienced in the church; he touches on the seminarians who lean into the traditional church versus the progress movement within. This leads the group to discuss the role of women in the church and in families and the establishment of male priest only in the Catholic Church. They touch on how God established this and His church, His intent and the need to honor it rather than adhere to social pressures.   St. Stanislaus Kostka Parish [https://ststanschurch.org/]
