One of the biggest crosses a parent can bear is when their grown up children lose the Faith. It's almost the exception these days to find parents whose children have all remained faithful. Kathy Sinnott's guest Vernon Robertson is one such parent who has experienced loss of faith in his own family. Vernon is a Catholic lay evangelist and the founder of the Seminar of Hope. Celtic Connections presents a new 13 part series with Vernon called “Praying the Prodigals Home, How to Pray for Your Sons and Daughters and Loved Ones.” The series was originally broadcast on EWTN between October 2014 to January 2015.
Please note that the talks in this series are in a different order than the Seminar of Hope manual.
