Why are dioceses unwilling to examine what is failing, and why vocations are down in most of the country? What messages have we been sending to young men for decades? Are they listening for the call? Fr. McTeigue, S.J. takes on these questions in this week's episode of Let's Talk About This. He finishes with Weekend Readiness to prepare you for Sunday Mass.
