Large Congregations at St. Josephs Catholic Church

He spoke on Marriage and Divorce and outlined efforts to unite Christians, noting divorce statistics and framing the cure as religious renewal through Jesus Christ. A question about women entering the church without head coverings sparked discussion, and next Sundays topic will be Christian Unity.
