Happy Easter
Pope Francis

We've made our way into the Easter Season, so death has been conquered.  Eternal life is promised to us when we take up our own Cross to follow Him.  Fear has fled and hope has replaced despair.  If anyone has taught us the example of hope overpowering despair - it was Pope Francis - who courageously for 12 years has led the Church with conviction, love and joy.  Pope Francis passed from this life into eternal life at 7:35 a.m. Rome time on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025.  Biographers and historians will build a comprehensive picture of his life and accomplishments - but for so many Catholics and non-Catholics, Pope Francis was the human face of God's tenderness.  We will remember him as bringing God closer to humanity and humanity striving to imitate the love of God among our brothers and sisters.

Jubilee 2025

2025 Jubilee: The Holy Year

With Optional 2-Night Venice and St. Anthony of Padua Post Tour Extension

The Office of Radio & Television and WJMJ Radio invite you to join Father John Gatzak on a special pilgrimage tour to Italy in celebration of Jubilee 2025: The Holy Year of the Roman Catholic Church.

The Jubilee is a special year of grace, in which the Catholic Church offers the faithful the possibility of asking for a plenary indulgence, that is, the remission of sins for themselves or for deceased relatives. A Jubilee usually lasts a year and a few days: it begins just before the Christian Christmas and ends on the Epiphany of the following year.

Florence, Assisi & Rome, October 26 to November 6, 2025 (12 Days)

Do you want to learn more about this exciting 2025 Jubilee pilgrimage hosted by Father John Gatzak, featuring Florence, Assisi and Rome?  Please watch our Zoom travel presentation conducted by Collette Tours, originally recorded on Tuesday, March 11, 2025, just click the button below.

We hope you and your family and friend enjoyed Glenn Colligan's WJMJ Family Christmas program on Christmas Eve.  There was a little of something for every age... including classic Christmas Sing-Along with Mitch Miller and The Gang songs for the whole family to join in.  While we couldn't help those who can't carry a tune, we did help with the words.  If you missed them or would like a copy to save a future carol sing, just click on the Sing-Along links below for a PDF copy of the song lyrics.
