0:07.7	Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.
0:22.5	Hey there, sprouts. Today is Tuesday, March 12th, 2024. We're in Lent. We're talking about martyrs.
0:30.6	Up today is a heroic woman from England during the Protestant Reformation, St. Margaret Clitherow. She has such an incredible
