Hello, this is Father David Nix on the Padre Peregrino podcast.

Happy today to be joined by Father Carney. Father Carney, thanks for joining us today.

Thanks for having me, Father David.

Happy Epiphany, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to you, Father and all the listeners.

Father Lawrence Carney. Father Lawrence Carney

was ordained for the diocese of Wichita in 2007. He was chaplain of the Benedictins of Mary,

Queen of Apostles from 2013 to 2022, where he knew Sister Wilhelmina. He's been a missionary priest

in the streets of Wichita and other U.S. cities over the last decade,

wearing the cassock and carrying a crucifix and a rosary at each hand in an effort to bring souls to the Catholic Church.

enrollment in the arch-con fraternity of the Holy Face and the Contraternity of the Holy Rosary.

He has authored four books, including The Secret of the Holy Face, The Devotion Destined to save society. Father, you and I have

but that's what I love about you is you have a vision to bring as many people to Jesus

through Mary as possible.
