Join Rev. Emily E. Ewing (they) and Rev. Kay Rohloff (she) and special guest Sister Colleen O’Toole (she) of the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas to explore new and nerdy connections to the scripture for All Saints Day, which falls on November 1st this and every year (though it may be commemorated on the closest Sunday), including our deep dive into saints!
The scripture we refer to for this episode can be found here. Colleen mentioned these spirituals by Servant of God, Thea Bowman. We talked about Archbishop Oscar Romero, who was our deep dive topic for our episode on the 5th Sunday in Lent this season. We mentioned Saint Gerard Majella, the closest we could find to a patron saint of handkerchiefs! This is The Christ Hymn by Alana Levandoski that Colleen mentioned. If you want to learn more about saints, Blessed Among Us by Robert Ellsberg is great! Also, we found out after recording that the painting we said was a Goya painting of Miguel Pro actually wasn’t. Oops!
