Olivia - I'm a cradle catholic, but new to ado

Fr. Joseph Illo of Star of The Sea Parish in San Francisco joins to talk about Eucharistic Adoration and blessings you can receive from making adoration a frequent part of your life.

 
(5:28) What is Eucharistic Adoration? 

Go to adoration and you will find out wat God wants you to do (11:17)

 
Break 1

 
(19:04) John - Most who go to adoration have something to ask. I'm reminded about the scriptures saying that you have not because you ask not. The reason they don't get it is because they're not asking. 

Prayer is 98% consistency. Every prayer is answered.

 
(31:59) I find that silence is difficult to maintain during adoration, how do I overcome distractions?

 
(35:50) Carlos - I had colon cancer 8 years ago. In adoration and had my conversion. I'm still here!

 
Break 2

 
(42:05) Angie - I am an adorer that has a late-night/overnight adoration shift. I have never felt worried at all.  I wanted to talk about why it's so important in my life.

 
(45:27) Olivia - I'm a cradle catholic, but new to adoration. I haven't experienced anything very emotional when going or 'aha' moment. Am I doing something wrong?

Father Tom Wilson joins Deacon Patrick Conley to discuss Confession
Why is Confession Important.
(6:08) What is the process of confession?
(17:00) How do priests feel about people coming to confession?

(20:14) Break 1
(21:40) Denise - Sometimes hard to confess. I feel the more I go, the easier it gets to confess the sins. Just being vulnerable and saying the sins...just feel better like a weight has been lifted. Really encourage all to go to confession. I don't want to be in mortal sin.
(35:12) Diane - I suffer from scrupulosity. 2 years ago I came back to the church after being away for 30 years. How do you determine difference between temptation and actual sin? Something in the news recently aroused me and I don't know if it was temptation or sin. It wasn't pornography.

(38:50) Break 2
(39:55) Patrick - How does Father feel about receiving communion when you are aware of a minor sin, not a major sin?
Email – What is the relationship between venial sins and confession?
(44:50) Marie - How do I clarify for a friend that confession is about confessing sins and not a counseling appointment? Also, I have some very protestant relatives and couldn't understand the value of confession. How do I answer that question?
