29 MAY. 2024 · On today's episode of Among the People, Fr. Joe and Luna sit down with Fr. Jim Najmowski, M.M. He worked for a number of years in South Korea and North East China and is currently working on the causes for sainthood for our Maryknoll Founders, Fr. Price Fredrick Price and Bishop James A. Walsh. In today’s discussion, Fr. Jim will share some of his insights on the life, spirituality and mission vision of Fr. Price.
10 MAY. 2024 · An interview with Maryknoll Missioner, Brother Marty Shea
There's no question that today's episode of Among the People is going to leave you in awe as we sit down with Maryknoll Brother, Marty Shea.
He's a missionary from Chicopee Falls, who's worked with the indigenous poor of Guatemala for over 50 years. His missionary journey since 1985 has taken him through the massacres in the jungles of El Peten to exile in Mexico to return with the people to their homeland in 1998.
In today's episode, Brother Marty talk’s about his life with the people in Guatemala and in the Mexican refugee camps, and his unique reflections on the refugee crisis that we face in America, Guatemala, Mexico and realities of those refugees.
26 ABR. 2024 · When I got there, this reality was already present. I just happened to be assigned there, because the Bishop learned that given my Central American background, being born in El Salvador, I speak Spanish, come into the United States, becoming an American, I learned English ... Eventually I was sent to the Philippines by Maryknoll before this assignment, and I learned the language of the south of the Philippines, and also Japanese, which I studied as soon as I got there. I studied it for three years, full time. And so with that in mind, he said that he needed to move me to this particular new assignment, so that I will pay attention to the new reality of the Catholics in Japan, because that's what is happening.
The Japanese Catholic population is declining, due to the aging population, and the low birth rate, but the Catholic population of migrants is making it to go up. So we have now a different reality than let's say right after the war, where everyone was Japanese Catholic. Now we have 56% of the Catholic population is foreign-born migrants, who came to Japan, and 44% born Japanese. So that's the new reality of the Catholic church. It's not everywhere, but primarily in the metropolitan areas of Tokyo, Saitama, Nagoya, Osaka. And so the people that are responding to the needs of the migrants are basically the missionaries from diverse communities, because they come not only with the need to be tending to, let's say their spirituality, the celebration of the Eucharist, the sacrament, but also with other necessities such as in occasion legal assistance, because they broke the law, or they lost their job, or they were injured and they are not being compensated, or sometimes they just get into trouble.
12 ABR. 2024 · On this episode Among The People, we are joined again by Fr. Larry Radice, M.M. who discusses his experience and importance of alternative energy sources. Solar energy, wind energy, and geothermal heating have both positives and negatives that should be part of every discussion because they can provide major benefits for communities.
From growing up on a small farm in Colorado to serving on mission after his ordination in 1985 in Tanzania, Africa, Fr. Larry has had a sensitivity to and keen interest in the Care of Creation.
29 MAR. 2024 · Hello everyone, my dear brothers and sisters. Let me wish you all the blessings of Easter as we celebrate the Resurrection of Our Lord.
This year, many of us may feel uncomfortable celebrating this season of great joy due to news of unrest and the horrors of war. It is natural that our hearts go out to the people of Ukraine. Their suffering is evident.
I wish it was something unusual.
But it seems that wars and suffering never end. Right now, in addition to the conflict in Eastern Europe, there are wars, insurgencies, and ethnic violence in every region that Maryknoll priests and brothers serve.
Even if they are not in the midst of misery, or shootings, like the ones we see on our screens all the time, they are not far away. People displaced from their homes become refugees in need of shelter. Children need to be educated. The hungry need to be fed.
When I have looked at the faces of those people, I have been able to catch a glimpse of the face of our Lord. Human suffering, in a war-torn land or on a cross atop Calvary, reduces us all to the same state.
Dear friends, in the Gospel of Saint Matthew the Angel of the Lord tells the women who go to the tomb: “Do not be afraid”. In a way, that sums up the glory of the Resurrection, which is God's gift to us.
When we let go of our fears, we can help each other transcend suffering. Alone we cannot end or win a war. However, together we can change the lives of those affected by it.
Your support and your prayers are what make the work of my fellow Maryknoll missionaries possible. On behalf of all the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers, I wish you all the blessings of Easter.
And I ask that you continue to pray with us as we serve our less fortunate brothers and sisters who are suffering in the world.
And now, my dear brothers and sisters,
May the merciful God, who by the resurrection of his only begotten Son has redeemed you and made you his children, fill you with joy with his blessing. Amen.
Through Christ the Redeemer, through whom you have received the gift of perpetual freedom, grant you also, in his goodness, to have a share in the eternal inheritance. Amen.
May you, who by faith have risen in baptism, deserve, by your good works, to reach the heavenly homeland. Amen.
And the blessing of almighty God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, descend upon you and remain forever. Amen.
Happy Easter.

They speak about their journey to becoming part of the Maryknoll community and their call to dedicate their life to mission. Sr. Efu talks about her passion to serve with women who have gone through trauma and her calling to work with them to heal their wounds.
Fr. Dennis, said his experience with alcohol addiction and other mental illnesses have been the motive for his want to heal people. Fr. Dennis connects his vocation to the priesthood with his call to heal those with mental illness by asking, “What did Jesus do? He traveled around and he healed people. Made people whole and he integrated them back into the community.”
Sr. Efu and Fr. Dennis have been invited to work with organizations all around the world to educate individuals and groups who have gone through trauma on how to heal themselves and be better connected to their bodies. Learn more about Fr. Dennis and Sr. Efu’s work here: Fr. Dennis and Sr. Efu.
