SacredSpace102fm was a weekly programme produced by "Come & See Inspirations" in West Limerick. The programme included inspirational music, chat, interviews, what’s on locally and not so locally and a reflection on the Sunday gospel reading of the day. It was presented by John Keily, regular panelists, contributors and invited guests. Programmes are available to be listened to online on our podcast pages.
Friar Michael Perry OFM is the Minister General of the Franciscans OFM - he is representative of St. Francis of Assisi for us. These words of wisdom will benefit all Franciscans but particularly those men who are discerning their vocation with them.
One young Christian song writer who we like here on SS102fm is Audrey Assad and we have posted the above video a couple of times.
The daughter of a Syrian refugee, an author, speaker, producer, and critically lauded songwriter and musician. She has just released a new album Inheritance.
Assad grew up in the Plymouth Brethren community, which is where she learned to sing, but she became a Catholic when she was nineteen. She told CBN back in 2013 why she became Catholic: “I always found it really beautiful-looking and sounding and smelling, all the different rituals and aesthetics of the churches and architecture. Then, as I got older and started reading a lot of theology and exploring the faith of Christianity, I found myself enamored with the oldness more than anything.” Inheritance is, therefore, a collection of songs that Assad literally inherited from both the Protestant and Catholic hymn traditions, along with two original songs that she co-wrote with (fellow Catholic) singer-songwriter Matt Maher.
