Welcome to The Gathering Place with Blessed is She.

I'm Jenna Giza.

And I'm Beth Davis.

Pull up a chair and grab a drink.

Or you could just keep doing what you're doing.

Pull up a chair in your heart.

Come chat with us about Jesus, prayer, community, and life.

So let's get started.

Hey, Beth. Hi, Jenna. How are you?

Well, it's good Friday, so I'm happy. You are? I mean, it's good Friday. It's a good thing, right?

Yeah. I mean, it's kind of sad and depressing. But it's also ultimately really good news. Okay, who do we have here with us today? Father Patrick Mary Briscoe, we're so glad that you're here. Welcome. Hi, friends. Thanks for having me. Welcome to the gathering place, Father. Did you know that's our name? I did not.

It's just like for us to gather together and chat about things.

I like it.

Thanks.

Father, you mean you're not an avid, Blessed Is She a podcast listener?

Geez, Father.

I have tuned in, but I did not know that this was the name. I don't remember names. I try really hard, too. It's a nice name. Gavin Place is a nice name. I feel like this is the place where we've gathered. That's right. That's it. Last year, we spontaneously recorded an episode in Ireland with Father Parks.

So this year, Beth gets to spontaneously record an episode with Father.

Oh, I wasn't aware.

Yeah.

Father, I guess we're going to record an episode in Ireland this November.

Absolutely, we are.
