Summary
Patrick gives advice to a woman who is witnessing demonic activity at her work. He also explains the difference between venal and mortal sins and what’s the primary job of the Holy Spirit.
- Mary – All the lay ministers at our Church handle communion differently. What should we do?
- John - Did the parents of Mary realize that she was to be the mother of God before it happened?
- John - Are children more likely to see spirits?
- Bob - Can a dream ever be sinful?
- Mark - What is the difference on venal sins and mortal sins?
- Steffen - What is the main job of the Holy Spirit?
- Mandi - I have been Catholic for a year now. My in-laws are dispensationalists. Does the church say they can be saved?
- Veronica - You guys are so awesome! I work in a prison; I don't believe in Spirits or Ghosts but we heard some banging but I know that no one was there. What do you make of it?
- Mary - My friends became born again Christians and got baptized. How does that effect their baptism as babies in the Catholic Church?
- Skip - Is excommunication just a more formal church acknowledgement of mortal sin?

| 0:38.8 | Before we get to the first call, I want to read an email here that comes in from Mary. |
| 0:46.3 | I'm just checking to see if I was asked to keep her anonymous, and I don't think I was. |
| 0:51.8 | I know. I could have just said, well, we'll go to a different |
| 0:54.2 | email. So Mary is writing from the Midwest and she says, actually Mary, she's writing from |
| 1:03.1 | Wisconsin. I'll just leave it at that. She says, my husband and I have three young children who |
| 1:08.3 | have not yet received their first communion. We understand that lay ministers of the Eucharists do not have the authority of a priest or deacon to administer |
| 1:14.6 | a blessing, but at our parish, the lay ministers always do in some way. It almost seems they haven't |
| 1:20.0 | been instructed what to do or say since every minister does something different, ranging from a |

| 1:34.7 | that we should continue to bring them up for whatever blessing is given by the lay minister. |
| 1:39.1 | That doesn't seem correct. Please let me know how you would handle this, continue going to lay ministers, or seek out |
| 1:45.4 | the priest only, or leave the young children in the pew during communion. Well, I'd like to begin |
