        <![CDATA[<p>Astronaut Colonel Mike Hopkins spent 334 days over two missions at the International Space Station, bringing with him the Blessed Sacrament so he could receive the Eucharist throughout the missions. Over the course of those many months, and his 5 space walks (over 32 hours outside of the ISS, in space), Col. Hopkins&#39; faith and appreciation of God&#39;s creation and his desire to explore the world grew. Col. Hopkins knows the Artemis II crew personally, and what they&#39;re experiencing on this final day of the mission and during re-entry and splashdown, and offers a first hand perspective of what families are going through and the joy and fear of the moment. </p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>On Good Friday, 2005, Pope John Paul II watched the Stations of the Cross from his private chapel at the Apostolic Palace. Too ill to preside over the stations at the Colosseum, he asked to hold a crucifix. The story of that crucifix, and the ailing Pope who would die just a few days later, is worth reflecting on this Good Friday, 21 years later. </p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Scott Bailey was a fan of Rian Johnson&#39;s films long before he sat down to dinner with him to answer questions about the priesthood. That fandom became friendship, and Fr. Scott consulted on Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, offering insights into the interior life of a priest and the liturgical and aesthetical quirks of Catholicism, making this new Netflix movie a beautiful (and accurate) portrayal of the Catholic priesthood. </p>]]>
