It was very educational and inspiring to hear the stories of the saints of our history
It was very educational and inspiring to hear the stories of the saints of our history. The speaker was both lively yet informative shedding light on the struggles of being Catholic and defending our faith. The talk was not boring or depressing but rather quite inspirational.
