Pop-Up Prayer: Guest Fr. Dominic Grassi

Joe Paprocki Prayer/Guided Reflections

Pop-Up Prayer hosted by Joe Paprocki

In this episode of Pop-Up Prayer, we hear some wisdom from my long-time friend, Fr. Dominic Grassi. Fr. Dom was my Department Chairman for my first job as a religion teacher back in 1981! He and I are co-authors of Living the Mass: How One Hour a Week Can Change Your Life. A lifelong Chicagoan, Fr. Dom was ordained in 1973 and has been a pastor, a teacher, a counselor, a coach, a retreat and vocation director, an inspirational speaker, an editor, and a writer. Here he shares about the uniqueness of each of our prayer lives.
