St. Catherine Laboure had a special mission from Mary. Mary appeared to this young woman, charging her with the special missions of spreading devotion to the Immaculate Conception and wearing the Miraculous Medal. Although St. Catherine was chosen for this mission, she humbly kept it a secret until her last moments on earth.
Our guest podcaster today is Caroline Kennedy. Caroline is a 16-year-old junior at Kingwood High School. She is a varsity player for her high school volleyball and basketball team and an active member of the Health Occupational Students of America and National Honor Society.
Outside of her high school commitments, Caroline loves being involved as a discipleship team leader for St Martha Catholic Church. As a discipleship team member, Caroline helps guide small group discussions for teens preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation. Caroline first began volunteering for her church as one of the lead technology individuals that manage the PowerPoint slides for the Lifeteen Mass and music ministry. She has attended several Archdiocese Youth Conferences in Houston and volunteered at the SHINE (Serving Him In the Needy and Elderly) high school camp in McAllen, TX for two different summers.
Throughout her middle and high school career, Christian music has always woken her love of Christ. One of her first Christian concerts was a variety of artists including Toby Mac, Matt Maher, MercyMe, Hillsong UNITED, and for King & Country.
Caroline has a strong devotion to Our Lady and recently counted over 20 rosaries that she has been given as gifts or received while attending conferences. One of these days she hopes to learn to make rosaries as a reflective prayer and relaxing hobby.
