Stephanie Parks — High School Campus Minister, Writer, Editor, and Speaker
Stephanie joins us to discuss her new book on Michelle Duppong, a beloved Catholic missionary, FOCUS leader, and young woman whose profound faith during her battle with cancer touched thousands and sparked a growing devotion across the Church. Her story is one of heroic trust, missionary zeal, and deep joy in suffering — offering a compelling modern witness for Catholics seeking hope in difficult times.

Catholic Morning Show Crew — Bo, Matt, Alexia, Ayden
The crew discusses Mardi Gras — what it means, where it comes from, and why Catholics historically celebrated before Lent begins.
Mardi Gras (French for “Fat Tuesday”) developed as the final day of feasting before Ash Wednesday and the penitential season of Lent. Historically, Catholics used the day to use up rich foods like butter, eggs, and meat before fasting — turning it into both a cultural celebration and a spiritual reminder to prepare for repentance, sacrifice, and renewal.
