We are excited to be joined by an expert on Bl. Emperor Karl, David Ross, to help inform and instruct us on how we can learn from his holy life and Christ like example. Bl.

Sir 3:17-18, 20, 28-29; Heb 12:18-19; 22-24; Lk 14:1,7-14 “All we need is pride! All we need is pride!” This jingle playing on radio recently caught my attention.
