EPISODE #299: PRISON MINISTRY 101 – WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?

Welcome to another episode of OC Catholic Radio featuring your host, Rick Howick.

Today, we’ll be talking about Catholic social teaching and restorative justice. Joining Rick in-studio are two distinguished guests, Peggy Normandin and Fred LaPuzza. Peggy’s name and voice may be familiar to many of our listeners as the former radio host of the popular EWTN radio show, “Call Me Catholic.” These days, she serves as a volunteer in prison ministry. Fred LaPuzza is no stranger to OC Catholic Radio, and he currently serves as the Director of the Office of Restorative Justice for the Diocese of Orange. Our discussion today centers around all things ‘restorative justice.’ Have you ever wondered what it’s like inside a jail ward in Orange County? Have you ever thought about serving as a volunteer in prison ministry? What are some of the joys and challenges for those who feel the call to serve those who are incarcerated? Join us for this fascinating discussion!
