Summary

This coming Sunday we will be celebrating the birthday of our Church on Pentecost! The Holy Spirit is still here, guiding the Church and active, but this is a special time to renew our own commitment to going out and converting the world. To get you ready for this work, we are reviewing the seven steps to conversion on the podcast this week. They are: Hearing the Gospel, Believing, Repenting of Sins, Confessing Christ, Baptism (or Confession for those already baptized), Living in Trust and Living in Compassion.

0:10.0	The daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.
0:22.0	Hey there, Spouts.
0:23.3	Today is Friday, May 26th, 2020.
0:28.5	Today is also the feast day of one of my favorite saints, St. Philip Neri.
0:34.9	Now, St. Philip Neri lived in the 1500s. He was a priest, and we remember him today as the patron saint of

0:50.7	Protestant Reformation when many different people were breaking away from the Catholic
0:56.1	Church. And yet St. Philip Neary knew that the Catholic Church was the church founded by Jesus

1:48.5	couple of delightful stories of St. Philip Neri that demonstrate this. For example, he was in
1:55.4	charge of a large congregation of lay people and religious people. He was their leader. And they all really
2:02.7	looked to him and revered him. So one day he showed up for a meeting. And he showed up and he had
2:08.2	shaved half of his beard, only half. So he looked ridiculous. He showed up and everyone was really confused what's going on and he proceeded
