Episode Synopsis

Yesterday (Good Friday), we started a powerful novena based on the Devotion to Divine Mercy that St. Faustina received from Our Lord. Our teammate Michelle Hillaert first brought us a beautiful reflection on St. Faustina in Episode 6. In honor of the Divine Mercy novena and in anticipation of Divine Mercy Sunday on April 11th, the week after Easter Sunday, we’re sharing this bonus podcast on Faustina and Divine Mercy by a special young guest. Since our podcast, season 1, ends tomorrow on Easter —- we’re sharing this with you now. Here is a link to the Divine Mercy Novena that started yesterday (Good Friday) for you to pray and follow along daily at: https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/devotions/novena-13366But you can easily do the novena prayers daily through Little With Great Love’s Facebook and Instagram stories. So, if you’re not following us there, go do that, and you can say the prayers with us each day through our stories found on those social media platforms.Our guest podcaster today is Lauren Catherine. Lauren is the 19-year-old daughter of our Red Bird Ministries teammate, Shelley Gallet. Her sister, Caroline, was our guest podcaster on Episode 31. Lauren was named after St. Catherine Laboure’s Miraculous Medal. She has a devotion to St. Faustina, who was one of her Confirmation saints. Lauren attends the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, where she majors in Kinesiology. She is a KD Lady or member of the Kappa Delta Sorority. From her desire to help, heal and give people hope, she wants to be a Physical Therapist. Lauren sees the needs of others and quickly and selflessly responds. She enjoys such things as running, shopping, photography, fishing with her dad, and going to the beach and Disney. With a great eye for fashion, she also likes shopping but loves buying little gifts for others just to see them smile. Remember that 80’s movie “Adventures in Babysitting”? Well, she adores children and earns money babysitting just like Chris Parker, but minus all that crazy stuff. about today's featured podcaster and saint here: https://www.littlewithgreatlove.com/holy-saturday-divine-mercyThis podcast is sponsored by: Littlewithgreatlove.com + Redbird.love.Special thanks to slacker, Jeff Sanchez, for voiceover work; guest podcaster Lauren Catherine; teammates Danielle Knight & Alyssa Sanchez; Karla Alfaro, and musician Rev.
