Today at 2pm ET on the Katie Prejean McGrady show, it's my final day of filling in for her and we're gonna have way too much fun! Halloween is around the corner... so obviously we have to talk Halloween through a Catholic lens (which we'll do with Plating Grace with Fr. Leo) as well as discussing The Occult in Our Lives (& How to Defeat it), and I'll be taking your calls about your own supernatural or paranormal experiences! Tune in to SiriusXM The Catholic Channel channel 129.

PS. If you're not already a subscriber to SiriusXM, you can still tune in by downloading the app and joining for FREE with the free 3 month trial subscription! That's also a great way to go back and listen to my last two days of filling in for Katie (we've had some awesome discussions, and it's worth it). Note though, the recordings of past shows only remain available for a handful of days. Honestly, all of the content there on The Catholic Channel and even EWTN Radio make the subscription well worth it even after the trial period.

I hope you'll join me!

Your brother on the journey,
Nick

Nick is super excited to step in this week to help Katie Prejean McGrady out, humbly attempting to fill her shoes! At the very least, He'll attempt not to burn the house down while house-sitting 😅. Let's have some fun with it! Nick would love for you to join him on SiriusXM The Catholic Channel 2-4pm ET. Call in to the show and join the conversation! 888-322-8465

Materials might seem superficial… but really, they connect us to God’s creation and the humanity of the makers.

I call upon thee, O Lord; make haste to me! Give ear to my voice, when I call to thee! Let my prayer be counted as incense before thee, and the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice.
- Psalm 141:1-2

Awaken Catholic has been silently working behind the scenes… brewing up some epic glory… one of the things we’ve been eagerly anticipating getting to announce is that we’re locking arms with the Guadalupe Radio Network! As of September 22, Nick De La Torre will be the new host of “Morning Joy”!!! Morning Joy broadcasts globally Monday through Friday, 6:00-8:00 AM Central/ 7:00-9:00 AM Eastern.

Morning Joy is Growing!

We’ve got some exciting news to share with you. Morning Joy, Where Truth Matters is expanding, going bigger and wider than ever before!

Keith isn’t going anywhere, you’ll still hear his voice, but he’ll be focusing more on social media to help bring Morning Joy to a global audience.

And we’re thrilled to welcome Nick De La Torre to the hosting team! You’ll be hearing him in the hot seat as we continue to bring truth, faith, and joy to your mornings.

Thank you for being part of the Guadalupe Radio Network family. The best is yet to come!

I’m blessed to serve the Lord in any way he asks me to. My favorite way is as a husband and father. I also passionately love serving Him as an evangelist. The work of evangelism often has me flying around to different parts of the country (and occasionally even beyond). The hardest part of that work is being away from my wife and children. This weekend I have an event in Pennsylvania - driving distance. They’re coming with me! ROAD TRIPPPPP!!! Blessed be God.

We’ll be praying a rosary this evening while driving. Leave any intentions you’d like us to offer up in the comments
